Kangwon FC is chasing Ulsan HD under the chin with two consecutive wins in the final round.

Gangwon defeated Gimcheon Sangmu 1-0 on the 26th. The difference between the leading Ulsan (62 points) and Gangwon (61 points) is only one point. Ulsan will take the stage. Ulsan will play the second round of the final round of the 「Hana Bank K League 1 2024」 at Pohang Steelyard at 2 p.m. on the 27th.

Pohang is also busy. FC Seoul fell one place to fifth place as it defeated Suwon FC 1-0 the previous day. Pohang has 52 points.



Both teams suffered during the week. Pohang lost 0-1 in an away match against Asian Champions League elite (ACLE) Buriram United (Thailand) on the 22nd. Ulsan kneeled 0-2 at home against Vissel Kobe (Japan) on the 23rd.

For now, we should forget about ACLE and focus on K League 1. This is the 4th of this season 'East Coast Derby' Ulsan leads the game with 2 wins and 1 loss. Ulsan won 1-0 in the opening match of the K League 1 on March 1. Pohang won 2-1 at home on June 30 and succeeded in avenging it. In the third meeting on August 31, Ulsan won 5-4 after a slugfest. Ulsan and Pohang will also clash in the final of the Korea Cup next month.



Both teams can't back down. The best 11 has been revealed. Pohang coach Park Tae-ha brings up the 4-4-2 system. Jung Jae-hee and Kang Hyun-je will take the lead in the attack, while Yoon Min-ho, Auberdan, Han Chan-hee and Lee Tae-seok will be in the second line. Wandelson Lee Kyu-baek, former civilian fish garden, will form a four-back, and Yoon Pyeong-guk will wear the goalkeeper's gloves.

Ulsan coach Kim Pan-gon counters with a 4-4-2 card. With Joo Min-kyu and Jang Si-young in the two-top, Rubik Son Boyanich Ko Seung-beom and Lee Chung-yong line up in midfield. Lee Myung-jae, Kim Young-kwon, Kim Ki-hee, and Choi Kang-min will breathe in the four-back. Cho Hyun-woo protects the goal.



The last time Joo Min-kyu scored a goal wearing Ulsan Yuna Form was against FC Seoul (1-0 win) on July 13. Three months have passed since the news of the goal disappeared.
