On August 16th at 6:30 PM, K1 League’s 27th round will see Daegu FC host Gimcheon Sangmu at home.
The home team, Daegu FC, suffered a loss against Ulsan HD in the previous round, handing the new manager Kim Pan-kun a winning start. They have been winless in their last 8 games, drawing 4 and losing 4. They are currently just one point ahead of Jeonbuk Hyundai, who are at the bottom of the table.
In their last 8 games, Daegu FC has been shut out by their opponents in 5 games, highlighting their serious scoring woes. Their star player, Cesinha, is struggling to carry the team alone. The 37-year-old Edgar Silva is showing signs of aging, while the recently recovered Barcelos is in poor form. The new foreign striker Italo has also failed to impress.
In terms of injuries, Hwang Jae-won, who missed the K League All-Star game due to an injury during the break, was absent in the last league game. His chances of making the roster for this game are 50%. Veteran Hong Chul felt muscle discomfort before the last game and requested rest. His chances of returning for this game are 70%. The good news is that midfielder Park Se-jin has recovered in time, solving the issue of manpower shortage in the midfield. Jeong Ji-in, who returned after completing his military service, has also recovered from his injury in the last game. His return will boost the team’s attacking power.
The away team, Gimcheon Sangmu, lost to Gangwon FC 1-2 in the previous round’s top-of-the-table clash. They have 2 wins and 3 losses in their last 5 games. The recent increase in losses has caused some concern among Gimcheon fans. Fortunately, the team has never experienced back-to-back losses this season, bringing some comfort to their supporters.
Although Gimcheon Sangmu remains the team with the fewest goals conceded among the 12 teams in the K League, the goalkeeping position has become a clear weakness after the retirement of “powerhouse” goalkeepers Kim Jun-hong and Kang Hyun-moo. In recent games, starting goalkeeper Kim Dong-heon has made some mistakes. The good news is that Kim Dae-won and Choi Ki-ryun have been in good form in the attack, and national team players Lee Dong-yeong and Lee Dong-jun are starting to show their abilities.
In terms of head-to-head records, Gimcheon Sangmu has won both matches this season, keeping clean sheets in both. Whether Gimcheon Sangmu can secure a third win over their opponents will be a highlight of the game.
