Gwangju FC vs Pohang Steelers Prediction: The Steelers Are Still A Threat

With seven points demarcating these two sides tied at the hip, the Steelers of Pohang are next to visit the Gwangju stadium, with Matchday 30 unfolding in full glare. Although losses have dampened morale in both camps, a rebound is anticipated for either side in this contest, which has barely produced goals recently.

Recent Form: W-W-L-L-L

Gwangju defends the honours of their ground in this clash against the Steelers off two wins and three losses in five recent league games. Recently, they crashed out of the second most prestigious competition in Korea, the FA Cup; they returned to the league with a 2-0 defeat to the Citizens of Daejeon Hana last week.

A 40 per cent home run in the last five home games casts a shadow of doubts in the hearts of the fans, who are still expectant of decency against the ravaging opposition.

Our favourite man is Albanian midfielder Jasir Asani, who is expected to coordinate affairs in the midsection of the pitch smoothly while uniting the defence, flanks, and attacks.

Recent Form: L-L-L-L-L

Pohang’s fall from grace should be understudied, with the team raking in five consecutive defeats in the last five league outings. Last week's 5-4 defeat against Ulsan exemplified loopholes in the team, forfeiting victory despite holding a 1-1 stalemate in the first early ten minutes. Reparative efforts in the final ten minutes saw the side comeback from a 4-1 losing scoreline to an eventual 5-4 scoresheet reading at full-time.

Jeong Eun Wo’s excellent ground duels and tackling skills put him on the radar as a player to frustrate Gwangju’s efforts.

The last four meetings between the sides produced two stalemates and two wins for Pohang Steelers. All four meetings produced less than three goals.

The Gwangju-Pohang affairs barely produce goals, and we expect the variants between the two sides, who have struggled in recent games, to produce few goals. Pohang has been the better side on Gwangju’s turf, with at stalemate and a win incurred. Our loud thoughts are:

• Under 2.5 match goals at 1.85 odds from Bet365.
• A BTTS- NO at 1.94 odds from Betway.
• A win for Pohang Steelers at 3.23 odds from 1xbet.
