K League Classic 2015 Round 2 Previews & Predictions
This round of games are split evenly between Saturday and Sunday. Games take place in the early to mid afternoons from now until the summer. Here are brief previews of this weekends K League Classic Round 2 Games;
Saturday March 14th 2015:
FC Seoul vs. Jeonbuk Hyundai (2pm)
Saturdays is game features FC Seoul and reigning champions Jeonbuk Hyundai.
FC Seoul looked poor has they were beaten 2-0 last weekend vs. Ulsan Hyundai.
On the other hand Jeonbuk Hyundai look strong as they beat Seongnam FC.
Even though Seoul have just signed Park Cho-Young he won’t be the difference in this one. We see it for Jeonbuk.
Prediction: 1 – 2
Suwon Bluewings vs. Incheon United (2pm)
Saturdays 2nd game is between Suwon Bluewings and Incheon United.
Suwon Bluewings lost a tight game last week at home vs. Pohang Steelers.
Incheon United were unlucky to draw last weekend, conceding with the final kick off the game vs. Gwangju
Although Suwon lost last weekend Incheon here a slightly weaker level of opponents.
Prediction: 2 – 1
Seongnam FC vs. Jeonnam Dragons (4pm)
Saturdays late game features 2014 FA Cup winners Seongnam FC hosting Jeonnam Dragons.
Seongnam FC lost last weekend against defending champions Jeonbuk Hyundai 2-0.
Jeonnam Dragons played out a 1-1 draw vs. Jeju United last weekend.
Seongnam at home can be strong and therefore we’re siding with a home win.
Prediction: 1 – 0
Sunday March 15th 2015:
Daejeon Citizen vs. Gwangju (2pm)
Sundays first game features the 2 promoted sides as Daejeon Citizen host Gwangju.
Daejeon Citizen looked off the pace last weekend as they lost vs. Busan I’Park.
Gwangju saved a point in the dieing moments last weekend on the road vs. Incheon United.
This is a tricky one to call, overall we see this ending in draw.
Prediction: 0 – 0
Pohang Steelers vs. Ulsan Hyundai (2.15pm)
Sundays second game features two of the leagues bigger sides as 2013 champions Pohang Steelers host local rivals Ulsan Hyundai.
Pohang Steelers recorded a solid victory on the road last weekend over Suwon Bluewings 1-0.
Ulsan Hyundai eased to a 2-0 victory over FC Seoul last weekend.
Both sides are currently unbeaten and look evenly matched, so a draw seems a likely outcome.
Prediction: 1 – 1
Jeju United vs. Busan I’Park (4pm)
Sundays late game comes of Korea’s Southern Island, as Jeju United host Busan I’Park.
Jeju United shared the points in a evenly contested draw vs. Jeonnam Dragons last week.
Busan I’Park edged past a poor Daejeon last weekend.
We think this will be a close one, but Jeju might just edge it on the day.
Prediction: 1 – 0
