Venue: Seoul World Cup Stadium (66080 seats)

3rd spot in the K-League 1 table for Seoul so far, a good showing. The match-going ticketholders pray for more points as 8th-placed Incheon United visit Seoul World Cup Stadium.

Insights:
  • Seoul have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded at home.
  • Incheon United have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Seoul form and stats

22 points is a decent return from 11 K-League 1 games here at Seoul World Cup Stadium for Seoul. The data says 6 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss.

Seoul travelled for their previous game, a trip to Gangwon that ended 1-1. Barba was able to secure the draw 1-1 in the game against Gangwon after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today?

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Suwon in a game that was won 7-2.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Seoul have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 9 games) they have won 5 times, drawn 2 and lost 2.

Trouble hitting the net? In this club's last 10 league matches, 8 have had two goals or less.

Seoul can score goals in their home matches. After 11 league matches they have found the net 23 times. Seoul have only conceded 10 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
