Going down - A look at the fight to avoid relegation
11 Bontang 30 10 8 12 45-47 38
12 Persela 29 11 5 13 33-40 38
13 Persisam 30 10 7 13 32-37 37
14 Persijap 30 10 7 13 35-43 37
15 Persebaya 29 10 6 13 39-44 36
16 Persik 29 9 8 12 37-48 35
17 Pelita Jaya 31 7 9 15 32-48 30
18 Persitara 31 7 6 18 34-52 27
Despite winning games against Persib (2-1) and Sriwijaya (5-1) Persitara's ISL future is finely balanced. Persebaya need one more point and that would guarantee Persitara a play off spot at best. And this weekend Persebaya play Persik at neutral Yogyakarta in a crucial game people like to call a six pointer.
With a decision finally made regarding Persikabo, their three point deduction was reimposed, now Persisam are sweating. They too received a similar punishment handed down by FIFA but the Indonesian FA over ruled it. Now, will it be reimposed?
Of course it's all irrelevant if the powers that be exert those powers and change the league format one more time, doing away with pesky inconvenient things like relegation.
