Match description
I consider the visitors (Ulsan) the clear favorites: they have 8 wins this season versus Daejeon’s 4 and sit 5th in the table while the hosts are 10th. Away, Ulsan average 1.25 goals with an average xG of 1.76, whereas Daejeon at home score only 0.56 goals with an xG of 1.48, indicating clear inefficiency from the hosts (0.56 goals vs xG 1.48). The visitors create more high-quality chances: they average 5.25 shots on target and 14.63 shots per away match versus the hosts’ 3.44 shots on target and 11.22 shots, and a conversion rate of 9% vs 5% further supports Ulsan. In the last 5 matches Daejeon have averaged 0.4 points per game, scoring 3 and conceding 8, while Ulsan average 1.4 points per game, scoring 5 and conceding 7, and have a +1 goal difference in away matches versus the hosts’ -7. Daejeon have not won at home (home win percentage 0%) and have failed to score in 56% of home fixtures; given superior efficiency, higher xG (1.76 vs 1.48) and advantage in chance creation, I predict a Ulsan win.
