## Review and events

Persib signed naturalized player Sergio van Dijk after the season had started. He made his debut against Persisam Putra Samarinda and scored a goal despite losing the match 2–1. In May 2013, Sriwijaya F.C. and Persib Bandung agreed to exchange players. Dzumafo moved to Sriwijaya and Hilton Moreira moved to Persib.

The match against Persija Jakarta that was due to be played in Gelora Bung Karno on 22 June 2013 was canceled after the bus that was used by the team and officials to reach the stadium was attacked by an unknown group. The rivalry between both clubs is well known; supporters of Persija Jakarta was suspected as the perpetrator of the attack. Police are still doing investigating the incident. PT. Liga Indonesia, which manages the Indonesia Super League, rescheduled the match to be played on 28 August 2013.

The postponed game result was a 1–1 draw. During the match, both sets of supporters clashed inside the stadium in the 16th minute, postponing the match for 20 minutes. Roy Suryo the Minister of Youth and Sports Affairs of Indonesia resigned to calm both parties. As a result of the incident, the disciplinary commission of the Football Association of Indonesia banned the Persib Bandung supporters from attending their next season's away games. The management appealed the verdict.

On 7 September 2013, the management confirmed that Persib Bandung would take part in the post-season friendly tournament Menpora Cup. They were drawn in the same group with Central Coast Mariners FC, Sriwijaya F.C. and Malaysia U-23. From originally five players, only Sergio van Dijk, Tony Sucipto and I Made Wirawan went to play in the 2013 Perang Bintang. The other two players, M. Ridwan and Supardi, were called back to join the team for the 2013 Menpora Cup.
