Taking no risks in Papuan highlands
Earlier in the season Persiba Balikpapan traveled to Persiwa Wamena with a weakened squad and lost. Teams tend to lose there. Last season Persiwa won all 17 home games.
Tomorrow they play Persija and the side from Jakarta have decided not to risk players who are carrying knocks. But in their case it means their first choice strike force.
Both Bambang Pamungkas and Aliyudin haven't made the journey east leaving them somewhat short of options up top with TA Mushafry likely to start by default. And he has yet to score this season.
Also staying behind is midfielder Mustafic Fahruddin because he is suspended.
