Indonesia will face Lebanon in a FIFA Matchday friendly match at Gelora Bung Tomo Stadium on Monday, September 9, 2026, with kickoff scheduled for 8:30 PM local time (WIB).
Team Analysis:
Indonesia heads into their upcoming match against Lebanon with confidence after a dominant 6-0 win over Chinese Taipei, where coach Patrick Kluivert successfully implemented a new 4-2-3-1 formation instead of his usual three-man defense. Lebanon, known for their solid defense and consistency, pose a tough challenge, having recently beaten Qatar and conceded only once in their last five matches.
Player Situation:
Indonesia is expected to make several changes to their lineup against Lebanon, potentially starting key players like Jay Idzes, Calvin Verdonk, and Joey Pelupessy to field their strongest squad. Lebanon, well-rested and already adapted to the conditions in Surabaya, is likely to pose a serious challenge with a confident and relaxed approach.

Lebanon is currently ranked 113th in the FIFA rankings with 1,176.19 points, while Indonesia sits at 117th with 1,157.80 points. The upcoming match will mark the first-ever senior-level FIFA Matchday encounter between the two teams.
