Persib Bandung struggling to score goals in early Piala Presiden 2025

Persib Bandung is showing difficulties in goal productivity at the start of Piala Presiden 2025 — managing to score just one goal from their first two matches.

Bojan Hodak‘s team underwent major changes with the departure of 13 players, including eight foreign players. Despite bringing in eight new foreign players, Maung Bandung still needs time to build team chemistry ahead of Liga 1 and Asian Champions League.

In the opening match, Persib suffered a 0-2 defeat against Thailand’s Port FC — a team they will face in the Asian Champions League. The attacking line showed more concerning performance when facing Dewa United, despite playing with numerical advantage since the 20th minute after Cassio Scheid received a red card.
