Command Analysis

Pohang Steelers

South Korea

Current form

Last year, the Pohang Steelers managed to win a place in the top six, where the hosts were last, even though they started from fourth place. At the final stage of the season, the club scored only two points in five matches, so this outcome is natural. At the same time, the team performed well in the national cup, beating Ulsan, the K-League 1 champion, in the final (3:1, D.V.). The year 2025 did not start well for Pak Te-Ha's wards. On January 11, they managed to beat Japan's Kobe (3:1) in the Asian Champions League match, but then major defeats against Kawasaki (0:4) and Johor (2:5) followed. In the domestic championship, the hosts lost to Daejeon Citizen (0:3) and Gangwon (1:2).

Disqualifications and injuries

The hosts have no problems with the squad on the eve of the third round.

Interesting betting trends

The team has suffered four consecutive defeats in all tournaments.
None of the last five matches of the hosts ended in a draw.

Daegu FC

South Korea

Current form

Daegu spent the entire last season on the verge of relegation from the elite division. At the end of the year, the team was only one point ahead of the last Incheon United. In the play-off matches, the guests managed to overcome Asan, who took second place in the last season of K-League 2. Apparently, the guests did not keep their place in the elite division for nothing, because the new season began as well as possible for the team. On their own field, the team managed to beat Gangwon first (2:1), and then Suwon (3:1). Park Chang-hyun's team became the only team to win two in a row in the first rounds, so Daegu leads the standings with six points in the asset.

Disqualifications and injuries

The guests have no problems with the line-up on the eve of the third round.

Interesting betting trends

The team has conceded in each of the last 13 matches.
The guests lost their last three away matches.

Approximate line-up: Oh Sung-hoon - Kayo Marcelo, Yoshino, Kim-sung-won Yang, Yong-Ra Lee, Se-jin Park, Hwang Ja-Won-Jong Chi-in, Chang-Min Ahn, Cesinha

Tip and bets

1.73Handicap (0) for Pohang Steelers

Daegu had a great start to the season, but the team won both victories on its own field, and the club is not playing so successfully on the road. Pohang Steelers is much superior to the opponent and it's time to start scoring points. We believe that the hosts will give their best in this match, and if they manage to avoid mistakes, then the favorite should win.

Our betting tip is an Asian handicap (0) for the Pohang Steelers in 1.73

1.88total more than 2.5 goals

Bet on the total

The hosts have conceded a lot in recent matches, but the team usually does well offensively. The guests, despite a successful start, do not demonstrate an exceptional defensive game - so far Daegu has never managed to win back to zero. We think that this time the opponents will focus on the offensive game, so we recommend betting more on the total.

Our betting tip is a total of more than 2.5 goals in 1.88

The first half bet

We do not expect that the opponents will move forward with great strength immediately after the kickoff. It will obviously take time to take a closer look at each other. In this scenario, a draw is likely based on the results of the first half.

Our betting tip is a draw in the first half at 2.20
