Indonesia will host Curacao at the Gelora Bandung Lautan Api Stadium in a friendly on Saturday (September 24). The game will be the first of a double header, with the second match due to take place three days later.
The hosts will look to build on their 7-0 thrashing of Nepal in a qualifier for the Asian Cup in June. Witan Sulaeman scored a brace and provided an assist to inspire a comfortable win for his team.
Curacao, meanwhile, will look to bounce back from their harrowing 4-0 defeat away to Canada in the CONCACAF Nations League in June. Bayern Munich defender Alphonso Davies scored a brace in that clash.
The defeat means La Pantera Negra have won just one of their last eight games. Their sole win came in a 2-1 away victory over Honduras in the Nations League. Leandro Bacuna and Anthony van den Hurk scored for the visitors, while Romell Quioto scored a consolation goal for the hosts in injury time.
Indonesia's win over Nepal means they have won four of their last six games. The only defeat they suffered in this sequence was a 1-0 home loss to Jordan in the Asian Cup qualifiers. Yazan Al Naimat scored the winner for the visitors in the 48th minute.
