Incheon United vs Gimcheon Sangmu Prediction: The Durumi Always Struggle Against Gimcheon

The twenty-first round of the K League kicks off with the Durumi crossing lanes with the Bulsajo of Sangju City. Ulsan’s loss last week reshuffled variants of the league table, shuffling teams and cementing Gimcheon’s spot at the top. The previous clash in the FA Cup saw Incheon win by penalties - but this time, Incheon has no other leverage and hiding place. Both teams present various tactical plays, but it goes to the Sungui Arena Park soldiers to determine how effectively they can frustrate the ambitions of the visiting side.

Last Five Matches: L-L-L-D-W

The Durumi Cranes of Incheon United push their luck in this game as they face tremendous odds against Gimcheon Sangmu, the current league leader. Four points from three losses, one stalemate, and a loss in the last five league games exudate the league’s performance streak - below par.

Incheon’s hattrick of losses last month does little to stir optimism in their home fans because they have taken only one win in the previous six home games. Coach Sung Hwan Cho’s 3-4-3 formation falls short of efficacy, and the fans expect a different approach against the Sangju Phoenix.

Regardless, Incheon has held its end against Gimcheon Sangmu in the past, and although many things are awry between the sides, a decent game is expected.

Last Five Matches: W-W-W-L-W

The Bulsajo are in for a test of mettle, breaking bounds as the title race seems tilted toward their favor for the first time this season. Twelve points from the last five games indicate an excellent run in the league, justifying their top-table stand.

The FA Cup loss to Incheon United was penned on a penalty, which went against their favor. However, the visiting Phoenix are given another opportunity to set records straight. Sangju City pushed Daegu Sky Blues and the Citizens to a 2-0 victory right after the 3-2 victory over the Kodiaks.

The visitors are highly motivated, and their style of play justifies the preferential leverage of the odds or the side as eventual winners.

The last five meetings between the sides produced two stalemates, two wins for Incehon United and one win for Gimcheon Sangmu. There have been three Under 2.5 total match goals and four BTTS - NO scenarios.

We envisage an exciting game between these sides, with Gimcheon’s winning streak threatened to be halted by Incheon’s tenacity and the two defences being at the top of their game. These are our thoughts:

• An Under 2.5 total match goals at 1.75 odds from Bet365.
• A BTTS - NO at 1.89 odds from Betway.
• A win for Gimcheon at 2.62 odds from 1xbet.
