It's early days in the K-League 1 and both Ulsan and Seongnam are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Ulsan form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Ulsan's two home games in the K-League 1 so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Ulsan Munsu Football Stadium.
Ulsan are returning here after visiting Pohang Steelers in a K-League 1 game and winning with a 4-0 scoreline. Junior Negao, Kim In-Sung and Lee Chung-Yong (2) scored the goal(s). A 1-1 draw away before that, with Gwangju the opponent.
As mentioned above, Ulsan "killed" Pohang Steelers in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
Ulsan are traveling soon after this match as the K-League 1 match at Gangwon awaits in three days.
Early season league goal statistics from Ulsan's 2 home games: 5 goals, 1 conceded.
Seongnam form and stats
The seven points Seongnam have gathered from their first three away trips in the K-League 1 is impressive and could lead to great things if the form continues.
Seongnam failed to get anything from their last game, a K-League 1 home match vs Daegu (placed 7th) that ended with defeat 1-2. Preceding that game was the away victory against Seoul with the score of 1-0.
A quick return to home after this game, as Seongnam are hosting Suwon Bluewings in the K-League 1 only three days away.
Seongnam have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 3 league away games 4 goals have been scored. The Seongnam defense is a tough nut to crack, having conceded less than half a goal per away game on average (1 goal in 3 games).
Head 2 Head
Ulsan-Seongnam H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Ulsan five wins, Seongnam four wins, one draw. four of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).Top Goalscorers
