K League Classic 2017 Previews & Predictions (Saturday November 4th- Round 37)
Moving onto the days action, here are our brief previews and predictions for this Saturdays games;
Gangwon vs. FC Seoul @ 3pm (Championship)
Prediction: 0 – 2
The only game from the Championship Round features Gangwon and FC Seoul. FC Seoul won last weekend moving them 2 points off the Champions League positions. Gangwon have lost their last 3. Therefore FC Seoul will be obvious favorites.
Sangju Sangmu vs. Pohang Steelers @ 3pm (Relegation)
Prediction: 1 – 1
The first of 2 big relegation 6-pointers as Sangju host Pohang. Pohang are safe and on paper have the edge, however Sangju need the points so we see it being even and ending in a draw.
Daegu vs. Gwangju @ 3pm (Relegation)
Prediction: 2 – 1
Daegu claimed safety last weekend and rewarded their coach with a long term contract. Gwangju have improved recently but this maybe a game too far, we see Daegu edging it.
