K League Classic 2015 Round 32 Previews & Predictions
This round of games take place on on Wednesday Evening. All of the games take place in the early evening. Here are our brief previews and predictions of this K League Classic Round 32 round of Games;
Wednesday September 23rd 2015:
Jeonnam Dragons vs. Suwon Bluewings (7pm)
Jeonnam Dragons haven’t won in 5 games need and lost at the weekend 3-2 despite being 2 goals up after 11 minutes. Suwon Bluewings are currently 2nd in the league but fell to a surprise 3-0 defeat to rivals Seoul at the weekend. We see Suwon bouncing back and winning this one.
Prediction: 1 – 2
Gwangju vs. Jeonbuk Hyundai (7pm)
Gwangju have won 1, drawn 1 and lost 1 of their previous 3 games highlighting their inconsistent recent form. League leaders Jeonbuk on the other hand have won 3 of the last 4 and could tie up the title in the next few weeks. Jeonbuk will be favorites here.
Prediction: 0 – 2
Busan I’Park vs. Jeju United (7pm)
Busan I’Park lost a close game at the weekend on the road vs. Incheon United, and now haven’t won in almost 2 months. Jeju United also lost at the weekend and look set to play in the relegation round of the league split. This one looks like a draw on paper as neither team has much to play for.
Prediction: 1 – 1
Daejeon Citizen vs. Pohang Steelers (7.30pm)
Bottom side Daejeon have only picked up 12 points all season and could be relegated within the next few weeks. They’ve only picked up 4 points in 3 months. Pohang Steelers have won 2 straight and look to be mounting a late title run. Pohang will be heavy favorites here.
Prediction: 0 – 2
FC Seoul vs. Seongnam (7.30pm)
FC Seoul picked up a memorable and slightly surprising 3-0 “Super Match” win over Suwon at the weekend and are still in with a chance of making the champions league spots. Seongnam also won at the weekend and at level on points with Seoul. This is a local derby and on paper looks very even, however we’re giving Seoul the edge.
Prediction: 2 – 1
Incheon United vs. Ulsan Hyundai (7.30pm)
Incheon United still have an outside shot at a first ever Asian Champions League spot, however they could also still play in the relegation group if they lose. Ulsan have won 3 and drawn 1 of their last 4 games and are one of the leagues form sides. This looks tight on paper and a draw looks the likely outcome.
Prediction: 1 – 1
