Korean League: Soccer Picks and Predictions Week 8

Author: Priyanka Saxena on Jun 24,2020

The K League is going well, and we have a lot of things to watch in week 8 of the league. Week 8 is going to be the fun as we will witness some top teams take on each other. Here are some matches and top picks for K league week 8.

Things to watch out in FC Seoul vs. Ulsan Hyundai Match on 20th June, Saturday at Seoul World Cup Stadium

Ulsan Hyundai is currently keeping an eye on the number one spot, currently, they are at a second position just behind the Jeonbuk in the points table. This season is going exceptionally well for the Ulsan Hyundai they are unbeaten so far in this season. They have shown a lot of characters and determination in seven matches they played and were successful in five of them. The key factor for them is that they have managed to win away matches as well.  

Jr Negao is in the purple patch right now. He has to lead the side by example, and he did it amazingly by scoring 8 goals out of 17 goals for Ulsan Hyundai. Ulsan hasn't only attacked the opponents but also has created a strong defensive wall. The team which has scored 17 goals in the tournament has just managed to give away four goals. Which is a very impressive record and that is why they are table toppers.

On the other hand, we have FC Seoul, who is not looking good throughout the season. They have a time leader Choi Yong-soo but his team is not able to deliver this season. Right now they would be desperate to break that losing streak of 4 matches and get back on track.

They are the bottom of the table and things are certainly not going as they want. They have conceded more goals and scored few which is why they are going through such a bad form. 

If we compare head to head Ulsan is ahead and looking at their form they can dominate against any side. So we can go with Ulsan to win the next game.

Major takes on Seongnam vs. Sangju Sangmu at Tancheon Sports Complex

Seongnam has to win the next game to come out from their two major consecutive losses. They lost against Diego on their home ground and also against Ulsan in the away game. To lose the match against Ulsan was understandable but to lose against Suwon that one at home was a bit updating for them. Last year they didn't do pretty well. They looked promising this year but things haven't changed much for them.

On the other side, Sangju hasn't done anything wrong this season. They have been dependent on a few players like Kang Sang-Woo and Moon Seon-Min but even they didn't do anything significant. Their main problem might be a lot of chopping and changing in the team. Every year they add new players, and so, they don't get stability.

If we check head-to-head battle Sangju is having an upper hand. This time things may change as Seongnam is doing well, maybe the match would also result in a draw. Sangju draw no bet+110

All you need to know about Jeonbuk Motors vs. Gwangju match at Jeonju World Cup Stadium

Jeonbuk is in the finest run of the tournament; they are the defending champions, and also the table-toppers this season. It seems like there is no one stopping them. They have won almost all the matches they played this season. Jeonbuk is looking strong at the title again. All good teams have two strong points common:

1. They are very strong at home.

2. They know how to steal victories from nowhere. 

These qualities make Jeonbuk the table-toppers as well. 

Jeonbuk has made their home ground as a fort which is hard to conquer for any opponent. Jeonbuk has been brilliant with an offense as well as their defense. They have scored a lot of goals and haven't conceded a single goal this season.

Gwangju who will take on Jeonbuk looks like a worthy opponent as well. So far they have done well in the tournament and are in the middle of the points table. They have won against Incheon United so they have momentum in their favor. However, Incheon United are a different team and are at the table bottom while Jeonbuk is the team right at the top of the table.
