Pohang Steelers hosts Busan IPark in round 1 of South Korean K League 1. The match will be played on Sunday, May 10th at Pohang Steel Yard (Pohang)
The winner of wooden medals last season begins the new season with a home match, and of course with the goal of exchanging the fourth place for something more valuable. Pohang just amazingly spent the final part of last season, losing just one time in 12 matches. Well, in the current season, the competitors need to watch the Steelers closely, as these guys tend to rise one line higher from season to season. In 2018, they were the fifth, in 2019 - fourth, and now it seems they should pick up the bronze! The team has a good scorer, Brazilian Wanderson. He scored 15 goals in the last championship, and the team surely expects even more from Wanderson in the new season. In general, the team seems to be very good, and they can start the season well.

Busan is a newcomer to K-League 1. More precisely, they already played here, but it was back in 2015, and now a return has happened. There is no particular information about this team, although it is not difficult to guess that the team spent the last season well since they received a promotion to the elite league of Korean football. There are a couple of legionnaires in the team, and judging by the coefficient that the bookmakers offer for this match, we should expect a fight, and Busan is unlikely to behave like modest newcomers. After all, bookmakers doubt whether the fourth team of last season will be able to cope with the rookie of the league at home.
Pohang is a favorite. But not everything is so simple and obvious. Busan definitely can be called a "dark horse", which should be treated with caution. Therefore, I decided to bet on the hosts’ victory with a zero handicap.
Prediction for the match: Pohang to win with 0.0 handicap
