Incheon United
- Incheon United will be confident of taking the win against Bucheon FC 1995 this Sunday, although it should be a tight game.
- Jong-Hwan Yoon's men have been in good form recently, winning 3 of their last 5 K-League 1 2026 games.
- That's a sharp reversal of their fortunes from a sequence of 1 win and 4 losses that had seen them slide down the table, and it was punctuated by a double of excellent results - a 1-0 home win over Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors and a 2-1 victory away at Ulsan HD.
- The latter result, in particular, demonstrates the attacking bite Incheon possess in Stefan Mugosa.
-
Mugosa is the main finisher for Incheon with 8 goals in 16 K-League 1 2026 appearances, and Morgan Ferrier has chipped in with 2 in his last 5 games, giving this team a real goal threat.

Recent attacking stats:

Bucheon FC 1995
- Bucheon FC 1995 have been going through a similar run of mixed results, although they've only won 1 of their last 5 games.
- 3 draws and a 1-3 home loss to FC Seoul have held them back from ascending the table, but the fact that their other result during that sequence was a 1-1 draw away to Gimcheon Sangmu suggests that Young-Min Lee's team are still a tough cookie.
- Lee's 3-5-2 system is a compact, low-risk, block-and-counter approach that gets its width from the wing-backs and its threat from the transitions.
Head-to-Head
This is a local derby in South Korea and the last time they met in the K-League 1 2026, Bucheon drew 2-2 at home .
