Finally catching up with the rest of the season, Ulsan plays the previously postponed game - by virtue of the AFC Champions League replacement against Gwangju FC. The visitors deserve a pat on the back for their quintessential consistency. A lot is at stake in this game because the two sides have latent aggression whenever they play, with Ulsan being the most preferred side, which eventually concedes defeat. Gwangju still faces the threat of Ulsan, which at the moment is on a ravenous climb to the top, depending on the outcome of this clash.

Gwangju’s intermittent highs and lows are inconsistent with the recent clashes against the Tigers of Ulsan, whom they have forced to their knees on two consecutive occasions. Gwangju’s six-point agenda was thrown out of the room last week as they fell to Daegu FC in a five-goal-laden struggle where they only registered two hits. Their resistance to Ulsan may be the only threat to the visitors' attaining the top spot, as they have taken Ulsan to the Cleaners twice in five recent meetings, despite Ulsan's distant memory of winning three of those games.
