Ulsan HD vs FC Seoul Prediction: Can Ulsan Retain The Top Spot?

Entirely free from all strings, The Tigers of Ulsan Hyundai pitches tent against FC Seoul, the capital city's mad lads who have been disappointing, pulling dead weights from the lower region of the table. The two sides have a stale history, with either side either settling for a stalemate or maintaining a narrow 1-0 lead on aggregate. Ulsan is heavily tipped to win, having better statistical ratings on paper. Can the visitors pull a turnaround, or would the hosts maintain their superiority and return to their spot, recently coveted by the Kodiaks?

Ulsan HD (2nd)

League Form: W-D-W-L-L

The Ulsan Tigers have survived the rigours of supplementary tournaments and finally enjoy being solitarily occupied by the K-League. Ulsan holds prestige like no other in the league, surviving in the AFC Champions League, maintaining strides in the FA Cup, and retaining their stay at the league’s lead. Ulsan’s return to the league was trouble for Pohang Steelers, who lost their lead, and fell freely to the third spot.

Won Sang takes the spotlight as the player to watch, with an excellent run in the last five games, where he has scored four goals in five starters, despite being featured in thirteen matches. As expected, Ulsan maintains a speckless form at home, with three wins and one stalemate.

FC Seoul (9th)

League Form: L-D-D-L-W

The Cheetah of Seoul FC hope to resume from the break with the much-needed momentum being lacking in the opening sixteen games as the season comes to a swift close. Two wins, three stalemates and one loss in the last five away games. The team is decent and is expected to give Ulsan a very hard time, as they have done in the last direct meetings against the previous league leaders. Of note from the team is defender Wan Kyu Kwon, a rock-solid member of the team who protects the integrity of the squad against an imposing squad like Ulsan.
