Gangneung City form and stats

Gangneung City have played 6 National League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 2-2-2 (wins-draws-losses). Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Gangneung City with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Gyeongju HNP game, 69 days ago, have they avoided a loss.

Gangneung faced defeat in their previous match, away at Ulsan Citize (0-4). Gangneung were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Prior to that, an away loss at Paju Citizen.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Gangneung, as the National League home game vs Changwon City is only four days away.

Gangneung City are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 8 goals in 6 games. Gangneung have conceded 7 in these home matches.

Hwaseong form and stats

Park Joon-Tae scored in Hwaseong's previous match, the home game against Cheongju that ended 1-0.

A loss against Busan Transportation was the result prior to that, in a home game.

Hwaseong have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 6 league away games 8 goals have been scored. As opposed to that, Hwaseong have seen the ball go into their own net 8 times on the road.
