Indonesia’s FIFA Points Could Surge from Matches against China and Japan

The Indonesia national football team, led by Patrick Kluivert, has the opportunity to significantly increase its FIFA ranking points in the upcoming 2026 World Cup Qualifiers (Asia Zone), based on a report from Bolasport.com.

Match 1: Home Clash Against China

Indonesia will host China at Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium in early June. Based on FIFA point calculations, the potential outcomes are:

  • Victory: Gain of +15.06 points

  • Draw: Gain of +2.55 points

  • Loss: Drop of −9.95 points

This match provides an essential opportunity for Indonesia to strengthen its global football position.

Match 2: Away Test Versus Japan

Following the fixture against China, Garuda Squad will head to Suita City Football Stadium to face the Japan national team in mid-June. The Japanese side remains a powerhouse in Asia, making it a high-risk, high-reward fixture for Kluivert’s team.
