Ulsan Hyundai will play host to Suwon Bluewings at the Ulsan Munsu Football Stadium on Wednesday in their round 30 of the 2022 season. Both teams will hope to get a win in this match. We give a detailed analysis of the match in the next paragraphs.

Ulsan Hyundai will be looking to bounce back from last week's unexpected and disappointing loss to Seongnam. Ulsan Hyundai was already behind by one goal against Seongnam when Kim Min-Hyeok scored on an open net in the 37th minute. Kwon Seon-Hyung scored the game-winning goal for Seongnam in the 46th minute, just before just seconds into the 2nd half. Having had a goal disallowed for offside, the Hyundai was forced to fly back home following a disappointing showing. But Ulsan Hyundai hopes to win in this encounter to be clear at the top of the league in what is expected to be the survival of the fittest.
