PSMS Medan will begin their 2026 President's Cup Group B campaign against Port FC at Gelora Bung Tomo Stadium on Sunday, July 26, with kickoff scheduled for 3:30 p.m. WIB. The opening fixture offers both teams an early opportunity to secure valuable points and build momentum in the tournament.
Team Analysis:
PSMS Medan, the only second-tier club in the 2026 President’s Cup, enters the tournament with confidence after a three-week preparation as they aim to challenge defending champions Port FC despite the difference in status. Port FC, fresh from a month-long training camp and determined to retain their title, expects a demanding contest against a disciplined PSMS side known for its quick counterattacks and high-intensity football.
Player Situation:
PSMS Medan are expected to line up in a 4-3-3 formation under Eko Purdjianto, with Felipe Cadenazzi leading the attack alongside Ikhsan Chan and Phillerson. Defending champions Port FC are also set to use a 4-3-3 system, featuring Asnawi Mangkualam, Lucas Tocantins, and Bruno Moreira in a strong squad guided by Sarawut Treephan.
Result Prediction:
PSMS Medan may come from Indonesia’s second tier, but experienced players such as Manahati Lestusen and Angelo Meneses give them enough quality to challenge stronger opponents. Port FC remains a formidable side despite the likely absence of several Thailand national team players, with enough depth to stay among the favorites.
Predicted Result: PSMS Medan 0-3 Port FC.
