Seongnam will hope to utilise their home advantage to help bridge the gap to today’s opponents. The home side are currently 21 points behind Ulsan.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Seongnam form and stats
With {0 K-League 1 wins}, 3 draws and 5 defeats from their home games, Seongnam are certainly not brimming with confidence. With eight home K-League 1 games in a row without a win, the Seongnam fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Incheon United game long ago, can be stopped today.
A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Seongnam, who played 1-1 against Busan I'Park. That match was also played at this venue (Seongnam Tancheon Sports Complex). In the preceding match a 2-0 victory visiting Incheon United.
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the K-League 1 game versus Jeonbuk Motors in only three days. This game is also played here at Seongnam Tancheon Sports Complex.
Seongnam has huge difficulties finding the net and are scoring on average only once per two home matches in the league: 3 goals from 8 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Seongnam defense is not exactly impregnable. 12 goals conceded from 8 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
Ulsan form and stats
The strength of Ulsan, who have the most scored goals (36) in K-League 1, on their travels this season is incredible with 22 points collected from 8 K-League 1 away games. Ulsan has 7-1-0 on the road, with 23 goals scored and 6 conceded. Long winning streaks away are a rare occurrence in football, which only makes Ulsan's record of six away victories in a row even more impressive. They last lost points away in the Gwangju game.
192 minutes! That's how long the Ulsan goalkeeper Hyun-Woo Cho and his defense have shut out their league opponents.
Ulsan had fun at their own home (Seongnam Tancheon Sports Complex) last time out, beating Pohang Steelers 2-0. B. Johnsen and Kim In-Sung scored. Preceding that match was the 0-0 draw at home vs Suwon Bluewings.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Gwangju in just three days.
Ulsan are a potent attacking force on the road with their 23 goals in 8 league games. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (6 so far).
