FC Anyang and FC Seoul will face off for the second time this season 'Yeongoji Derby'.

Anyang and Seoul are scheduled for the 12th round of 'Hana Bank K League 1 2025' at Anyang Sports Complex on the 6th.

It is the 'Yeongoji Derby' that receives the most attention this season. The two teams, which had drawn great attention from the opening media day of the K League for their relocation and return to their hometowns, are scheduled to clash once again. The enthusiasm of fans who sold out Anyang Sports Complex represents the heat of the game.




However, the situation has changed with Derby, the first home of the season. The two teams, who faced off in the second round, drew attention at the time as a showdown between Anyang and Seoul. The result is a 2-1 victory for Seoul. Seoul, which had the upper hand in power, overpowered Anyang, giving them the memory of their first K League 1 defeat.

In the 10th round, about two months later, the two teams are drawing attention with a different trend than expected. Anyang showed its potential even though it was a promoted team and quickly adapted to K League 1. Flexible tactical changes and players' struggles stood out. With five wins and seven losses without a draw, he steadily built up wins with the nickname of `Team of the Man.' On the other hand, Seoul's good momentum at the beginning was dampened, and it fell into a slump with two draws and three losses in the last five games. His frustrating offense, which scored only three goals during the period, was hampered.

Both teams are desperate to win. Starting with Gimcheonjeon in recent years, Anyang has continued to flow 'pondang-pondang' with 'pondang-pondang-podang-podang'. Since they lost the previous match against Daejeon, they have to try to rebound again with a victory against Seoul. Seoul should break the sluggishness. If you lose against Anyang, you will lose four games in a row. It is a crisis that may not be a challenge to win, but a drop in the relegation zone.




Anyang coach Yoo Byung-hoon took out a 3-5-2 formation. Kim Un and Matheus are two-top players at the front line, while Lee Tae-hee, Eduardo, Kim Jung-hyun, Chae Hyun-woo and Kang Ji-hoon will protect the midfield. The defense team is composed of Kim Young-chan, Lee Chang-yong, and Thomas. The goalkeeper's gloves are worn by Kim Da-sol.

Seoul head coach Kim Ki-dong will face off in a 4-2-3-1 formation. Cho Young-wook at the front line, and Lucas and Jung Seung-won and Jeong Han-min at the second line. Hwang Do-yoon and Ryu Jae-moon will work together on the third line. The four-back will be built by Choi Jun, Yazan, Kim Joo-sung and Kim Jin-soo. The goal is protected by Kang Hyun-moo.
