Seoul form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the K-League 1 this season. Seoul have only managed 2 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses from their games here at Seoul World Cup Stadium. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Seoul, their manager J. Park and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

Seoul enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Pohang Steelers's place. The match ended 1-0 with Yo-han Go scoring. The attacker Yo-han Go was "man of the match" for Seoul with a rating of 7.45/10. Go scored one goal and dribled passed the opponent 2 of 2 times.

Ahead of that match, Seoul lost 0-1 at home to Incheon United.

Seoul are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 8 goals in 8 games. On the other hand, Seoul have conceded 11 goals. It's worth mentioning that 6 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.

Ulsan form and stats

It could be a hat trick of victories away for Ulsan, as they have won on their previous two travels.

Ulsan failed to get anything from their last game, a K-League 1 home match vs Suwon (placed 6th) that ended with defeat 2-5. Midfield player Valeri Qazaishvili was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.45/10. Qazaishvili scored one goal, hit one key pass, dribled passed the opponent 7 of 9 times and had 35 successful passes (of 41 total). As you can tell from the result, the match against Suwon was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today? Hitting the posts three times in the Suwon game proved expensive as Ulsan lost 2-5.

Before that one, a nice away victory 2-0 at Bangkok Glass.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Daegu in just four days.

The visiting Ulsan have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 13 goals from 10 games. It's worth mentioning that 8 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Ulsan have conceded 11 goals in these away matches.
