Seongnam made a bright start to this new K-League 1 season with a solid 2-0 win away from home at newcomers, Gwangju, on the weekend and they now look forward to returning to their Tancheon Sports Complex for this first home match of the season against Incheon United this Sunday.
The hosts have lost just 1 out of their last 5 matches overall in the domestic top flight which is a significant improvement upon results beforehand as Seongnam had earlier managed just 1 of their previous 8 matches overall.
Despite their previous troubles, victories over Sangju Sangmu 1-0 away from home and a 3-1 home win against relegated Jeju United meant that Seongnam finished last term on a positive note, and they’ll be hoping they can open their account at home with a win this Sunday too.
Goals have been fairly slow though at home for Seongnam as 10 of their last 15 matches at home have resulted in under 2.5 goals while the previous 5 meetings against Incheon United have also seen under 2.5 goals scored.
Incheon United shared the points with Daegu in what was a dour 0-0 stalemate in their opening match of the K-League 1 season at the Sungui Arena Park, and this followed a previous 0-0 draw away at Gyeongnam at the end of the last campaign.
Incheon have made themselves a hard team to beat though in the domestic top flight as they’ve suffered just 1 defeat out of their last 10 matches overall, but they’re also prone to being involved in a number of draws as well.
This leads their matches to lean towards low-scoring encounters and recent results certainly seem to indicate this as 8 of Incheon United’s last 10 matches have resulted in under 2.5 goals.
In addition, 8 of Incheon’s last 12 away matches have also been under the 2.5 goals mark and this clash against Seongnam may also result in a low-scoring affair.
The Betting Verdict
Goals may be in short supply between Seongnam and Incheon here as they seem fairly evenly matched.
