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
The home supporters can't complain about results here at Ulsan Munsu Football Stadium as Ulsan, who have the fewest conceded goals (15) in K-League 1, have scored 15 goals to get 18 points from 8 games. The overall stats in the K-League 1 are 5-3-0 (wins-draws-losses).
It's back home for Ulsan, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Jeju United away with the result 2-1. Dong-jun Lee and Ji-hyeon Kim found the net in that victory. Goalkeeper Hyeon-woo Jo got the top rating on the team in that game; 7.85 out of ten. Jo stopped the opponent with six saves. Ulsan goalkeeper Hyeon-woo Jo did an outstanding job against Jeju United with six saves, so vital to securing the victory. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of M. Hong when Ji-hyeon Kim scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 61st minute. Some amazing scenes last match, when Ji-hyeon Kim scored the winning goal one minutes into stoppage time.
Before that, Ulsan had a FA Cup home game versus Gyeongnam which ended with a victory 3-0.The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Ulsan's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played nine games, won seven matches, drawn two and lost zero.
The Ulsan fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 15 goals in 8 league matches. Ulsan have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only 4 goals.
Seongnam form and stats
Seongnam have only collected 7 points from their away games in the K-League 1, after 1-4-2 (7 played). Visiting Seongnam has seen their last two away games both end with a tied score and one point each.
Home advantage was not enough for Seongnam in their previous game, as they lost their K-League 1-match, hosting Jeonbuk Motors, 1-5. Yeong-kyu Ahn was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.45. The defender Ahn hit one key pass and won 8 of 10 duels. As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Jeonbuk Motors was particularly ugly (1-5). The humiliation is still top of mind.
A loss against Suwon was the result prior to that, in a home game.Looking at the earlier recent performances of Seongnam when being an outsider away as they are today, we find two matches with the visitors losing two times, drawing zero and winning zero games.
The attacking power of Seongnam when travelling is not overwhelming with 6 goals scored from 7 league matches away. It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Seongnam have conceded 7 goals in these away matches. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
