Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Seoul & Seoul E. face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Korean Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Seoul and Seoul E..
Seoul form and stats
Last season, Seoul's Korean Cup journey ended in the quarter-finals.2-0-2 (win-draw-lost) are the K-League Classic numbers at home for Seoul so far this season. Seoul has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager J. Park and the players. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Seoul, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.
Heartbreak before that as Seoul lost 2-3 at Ulsan's place.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Daegu are coming to town in three days.
Seoul have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Seoul World Cup Stadium with 6 goals in 4 league matches. Seoul's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 4 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Seoul E. form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Songwol in order to reach 3rd round of Korean Cup. Seoul's mission in Korean Cup last season failed in the 3rd round.Four points from two away games for Seoul E., meaning one draw and one victory in the K League 2 so far.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a K League 2 home defeat versus Asan Mugunghwa with 0-1 on the scoreboard. Prior to that match, a home win 4-0 against Bucheon 1995 in the K League 2.
Seoul E. were so close to getting something from the game against Asan Mugunghwa, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal two minutes into overtime.
The schedule is very tough for Seoul E. now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A K League 2 game at Daejeon Citizen is waiting in only three days.
3 goals so far away for Seoul E., while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 0. All from 2 league matches away.
