Gwangju vs Ulsan Hyundai Prediction: We May Experience The FA Cup Deja Vu Again

Ulsan players remain in Gwangju City after the FA Cup encounter, remaining in the league to smoothen things ahead of Matchweek 28. Three back-to-back fixtures mean the two sides would see themselves a lot this period. The visitors face vengeful hosts, who fell face first last week and would be looking to change the order of things between the sides.

Gwangju FC (7th)

Recent Form: L-W-W-W-L

Gwangju faces Deja Vu in this game, losing to Ulsan last week in the first leg of the Korean FA Cup semi-finals. They have taken nine points in the league in five recent games, courtesy of two losses and three wins. Gwangju’s poor scoring form in the last five games is problematic, as they barely make it against Ulsan’s claws every time they clash.

Defensive maestro Yool Heo remains the favorite for this game, as his efforts minimized Ulsan’s efforts to a solitary goal last week, despite the losing mishap.

Gwangju holds a decent home run, with three wins and two losses in five home games. Against Ulsan, they have conceded in the most recent two home games, giving a slight nod to critics, who envisage more of the same in this league contest.

Ulsan Hyundai (3rd)

Recent Form: W-L-L-W-L

The Tigers were resilient enough to win the FA Cup clash against Gwangju, which was envisaged to end in a stalemate. Yago Cariello fulfilled all expectations, scoring to provide an early advantage ahead of the second-leg fixture.

The last five league games were unrolled into three losses and two wins, slipping Ulsan down the ladder to the third spot, where they currently perch.

Ulsan Tigers have been poor at the Munsu Football Grounds, their home turf, containing three losses, one stalemate and one win.

H2H ANALYSIS (LAST FIVE MEETINGS)

Although Ulsan and Gwangju have a long history of clashes, Gwangju has won in the last three direct clashes, with four games, doubling as BTTS-NO and ending in less than three goals.
