FC Anyang
- Byeong-Hoon Ryu has managed this club since December 2023 and has constructed a compact four-back system based on aggressive pressing and swift counter-attacks.
-
Recent form:
- FC Anyang have lost their last three games.
- FC Anyang have won just two of their last five.
Jeju United
- Jeju are a different beast to what they were last season and Sergio Costa's team are well organised, versatile and can spring forward quickly from a structured build-up.
-
Recent form:
- Jeju United have won their last two games.
- Jeju United have won three of their last five.
Head-to-Head
Jeju have failed to win either of their past two away matches against these opponents, so there's plenty to suggest that the Violets can make this a tough tie.
Key Players
- Negueba has been Jeju's sharp edge, scoring four goals in his last five appearances as the Tangerines have netted 11 times in that run.
- Ivan Jukic has been Anyang's creative spark with four assists in their last five.
Betting Insights
- There's little to choose between the two in the betting market with the Tangerines 2.8 favourites versus the Violets at 2.65, but our selection is to side with the visitors.
- Under 2.5 goals at 1.72 is a good option in the alternatives market and looks to suit the way these two play.
Prediction
- Jeju's control and vertical transitions can punish gaps if the Violets overcommit, but Anyang's front-foot approach should rattle Jeju's build-up if they can make it work.
- Our selection is to side with the visitors.
- We fancy them to carve out a slim victory.
