Ulsan HD will play the 18th round of the 'Hana Bank K League 1 2025' early against Daejeon Hana Citizen at 7:30 p.m. on the same day at Munsu Football Stadium. The match was scheduled to be held on June 15 in accordance with Ulsan's participation in the FIFA Club World Cup.
The two teams have already met once this season. They collided at Daejeon World Cup Stadium on February 23. Ulsan reported its first win of the season by overpowering Daejeon 2-0 with consecutive goals by Yoon Jae-seok and Heo Yul. It was Daejeon's only defeat this season.
Currently, Daejeon is the number one place. There are 13 points (4 wins, 1 draw, 1 loss). Ulsan, which is trying to win its fourth consecutive K League 1 title, remains in fourth place (10 points, 3 wins, 1 draw, 2 losses). If Daejeon wins, we can take a step ahead. If Ulsan wins, the points will be the same.
Ulsan lost 0-1 against the Pohang Steelers three days ago, ending its last four consecutive games (3 wins and 1 draw). Daejeon drew 1-1 with Gwangju FC on the same day.
The best 11 of the two teams were revealed. Ulsan coach Kim Pan-gon brings up the 4-2-3-1 system. With Eric in the one-top for the first time, Lee Hee-kyun, Rakaba and Yoon Jae-seok are in the second line. Lee Jin-hyun and Ko Seung-beom are defensive midfielders and play a role as a bridge between offense and defense. Park Min-seo, Lee Jae-ik, Seo Myung-kwan, and Yoon Jong-kyu are lined up in the four-back, and Cho Hyun-woo protects the goal.
Daejeon manager Hwang Sun-hong counters with a 3-4-3 card. Kim Hyun-wook, Gutech, and Yoon Do-young are in the three-top, while Shin Sang-eun, Kim Joon-beom, Lim Deok-geun and Kang Yoon-sung are in the midfield. Park Kyu-hyun, Anton, and Im Jong-eun will be in charge of the three-back, while Lee Chang-geun will wear the goalkeeper's gloves.
Joo Min-kyu, who moved from Ulsan to Daejeon ahead of this season, visited his former team for the first time since the transfer, but starts on the bench. On the other hand, Lim Jong-eun from Ulsan will start.
Ulsan dominated the match against Daejeon last season with two wins and one loss.
