1.62Tip and bets
The visitors have a very busy schedule, so they are unable to achieve optimal results in either the Champions League or the domestic championship. The hosts do not have such problems, so Seoul retains a higher chance of finishing in the top three. The capital club played its last three matches away and is probably missing its fans. Considering that the hosts have lost only one of their last nine home matches, we believe that the victory will remain with the Seoul team.
Our prediction is a victory for Seoul at 2.35
Bet on total
The opponents have not been pleasing fans with high scoring lately. Most likely, the fatigue accumulated during the season is having an effect. We assume that there will be no sudden surge in scoring in the face-to-face match, so we should expect a small number of goals.
Our prediction is total under 2.5 goals with odds of 1.80
Bet on corners
We think that the teams will focus on defense, so we do not recommend betting on a large number of corners.
Our prediction is total over 8.5 corners with odds of 1.90
