The K League season reaches the end of June with the table taking shape both at the top and bottom. At the top Jeonbuk Hyundai hold a narrow lead over second placed Ulsan Hyundai, and the two square off in the highlight match on Sunday evening. At the bottom local rivals Incheon United and FC Seoul are the early season strugglers, Seoul host Incheon on Sunday hoping to win the Gyeongin Derby and extend their advantage over their relegation rivals.
Down in K League 2 the clash between last seasons relegated sides Jeju and Gyeongnam stands out.
