It's advantage Ulsan so far with their 1st position in the K-League 1 table, welcoming Gwangju who are placed 6th.
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!
Ulsan form and stats
Ulsan, who have the most scored goals (45) in K-League 1, are steadily winning K-League 1 games and points here at Ulsan Munsu Football Stadium. 6 wins, 4 draws and 1 defeat is the summary from 11 games.
Times are rough for the home team, having gone 191 minutes without scoring a league goal. B. Johnsen was the last player to find the net.
Prior to that, an away loss at Pohang Steelers.
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the FA Cup game versus Jeonbuk Motors in only three days. This game is also played here at Ulsan Munsu Football Stadium.
A decent goal production from Ulsan in their home games so far, with 18 goals from 11 league matches. From these home matches, Ulsan have conceded only 6 goals. It's worth mentioning that 3 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Gwangju form and stats
Playing away, Gwangju have won 4 games, drawn 3 and suffered 4 defeats in the K-League 1 this season. With the Gwangju losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Gwangju are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.
Preceding that game, the 1-4 loss visiting Jeonbuk Motors's place.
The visiting Gwangju have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 15 goals from 11 games. 14 goals have been conceded by Gwangju in these games. It's worth mentioning that 9 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
