Week 28 of the K League unveils as Pohang’s Steelmen receive the Daegu SkyBlues.

Recent Form: L-W-L-L-L
Of the four teams vying for the top spot, Pohang seems to suffer most of the reshuffling tension as they have only picked three points from the last five league encounters.
The Steelers look to quickly overturn their three-game losing streak with a dominant 2-1 scoreline against Gimcheon Sangmu, FC Seoul and Jeonbuk Hyundai.
They were utterly impressive in the first leg of the FA Cup semifinal contest against Jeju United, returning from a 2-0 defeat to share the spoils in the 2-2 stalemate at full time. Things, however, are expected to be positively different when Jeju United repays the favour on their home turf.
Tackling master Wanderson, as usual, remains the favourite player in this game. His excellent tackles are sure to create counterattacks for the side, which may once again guarantee victory for his side, returning them to hostile pack chasers.
Daegu FC (7th)
League Form: D-L-D-L-W
The Sky Blues have been unpredictable in the last five games, with highlights spanning the 3-0 victory over Gimcheon Sangmu and unexpected 1-0 defeats to Ulsan and Gwangju.
Daegu’s frontman Cesinha, who scored against Juventus in the Club Friendlies, is the undoubted terror in the frontlines. As he decimates his opposition, he is expected to increase his seven-goal running tally.
H2H ANALYSIS (LAST FOUR MEETINGS)
