Incheon United hosts Gangwon in round 5 of South Korean K 1 League. The match will be played on Friday, June 5th at Sungui Arena Park (Incheon)
Incheon is almost the main outsider of the Korean K-League 1 - this team took the last place in the standings in the championship before last, and the last one ended with the penultimate line. As for the current season, the home team also shows bad results, having only four points after four rounds, and they were scored in the first two games. Now Incheon will have to face Gangwon, which shows a much more solid game, so the hosts will have plenty of problems, especially in defense. But the history of head-to-head meetings suggests that Incheon United can get its chance in the attack because the team scored at least once in eight out of nine home matches with Gangwon. There is some confidence that the hosts will be able to score again because the opponent’s defense does not shine with special reliability.

One can safely call Gangwon the main middle peasant of the standings because today's visitors became the sixth (twice) and the seventh team in the last three seasons. The Oranges started the current championship very confidently - they managed to earn seven points in the first four rounds, and Gangwon beat the country's strongest club Jeonbuk in the last match (1-0). It should be noted that such a successful start is largely connected with a convenient calendar because Gangwon held only one away match (against modest Sangju), but it suffered a single defeat in it (0-2). I don’t think that Gangwon, which has traditionally shown a much weaker game on the road, will manage to keep a clean sheet but the Oranges are obliged to score their goal. After all, they will play against one of the outsiders.
I cannot but note that head-to-head meetings on Incheon’s field usually turn out to be quite productive - both teams scored in four out of five last games. I think that it is worth betting on an exchange of goals again.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score - yes
