Barito Putera coach Vitor Tinoco remains confident that his team can escape the relegation zone in the remaining three weeks of the 2024/25 Indonesia Liga 1 competition. Tinoco believes that Barito Putera still has a chance to determine their fate in the current season. Despite the pressure faced by the team, the Brazilian coach emphasizes the importance of facing the remaining matches with spirit and high confidence.
Currently, Barito Putera is in the 16th position in the Indonesia Liga 1 standings with 30 points from 31 matches, just one point behind the 15th-placed Semen Padang. They are set to play against Persib Bandung in the 31st week of Liga 1 at the Gelora Bandung Lautan Api Stadium. Vitor stresses the significance of focusing on their own team’s performance rather than relying on other teams’ results.
If Barito Putera can secure full points against Persib Bandung, they have the opportunity to climb to the 13th position, surpassing Semen Padang, Persis Solo, and Madura United. The coach is optimistic about their chances of avoiding relegation, highlighting the importance of their own efforts. This upcoming match will be crucial for Barito Putera in their quest to secure a higher position in the standings and potentially avoid relegation.
