Daegu vs Seoul Predictions and Top Odds
Both teams are currently in the top six of the K-League, but Daegu has some grounds to cover before the season ends as their status is still up in the air.
Contents
Draw
When two teams that are meeting have the same issues while playing at home or away, the draw seems to be the logical pick as it could be for this Daegu vs Seoul prediction. Daegu's home form has seen them win only two games in seven outings while Seoul was victorious three times in as many away matches. Out of the last ten times these teams faced each other, four games ended with them splitting the spoils while both teams took home three wins. The last time they met when Daegu was the host, the home team won 3-0. Overall, Daegu has been a team with better form going undefeated in their last four matches.
Over 2.5 Goals
Even though we are expecting a tough encounter between teams that are not separated by too many aspects, their games in recent years produced some high scorelines. Four of the last five Daegu vs Seoul ties had more than two goals scored while looking at their current form, Seoul has been one of the best-scoring teams in the league while the same cannot be said about Daegu. However, the home team had three out of the last five matches with at least three goals in the back of the net while playing in front of their fans, and at the same time, Seoul had three straight over 2.5 goals away matches.

Daegu vs Seoul Lineups, Team News, and Preview
Daegu
The home team barely escaped relegation last season, and this year they have a chance of advancing to the Championship Group which would be considered a success for this club that was never a K-League champion. Daniel Penha is injured for the home team and he is expected to miss the match.
Possible lineup: Choi, Jo, Hong, Kim, Hong, Lee, Lee, Hwang, Cesinha, Edgar Bruno, Go.
Seoul
Contrary to their opponents, Seoul won the title on six occasions, but the last time it happened was seven years ago. Last year they were even worse placed than Daegu, so finding themselves second on goal difference at the moment is a positive achievement. Yo-han Go and Don-won Ji have health issues ahead of the match this weekend.
Possible lineup: Baek, Lee, Kim, Lee, Park, Osmar, Ki, Palocevic, Willyan, Hwang, Na.
Player to Watch: Edgar Bruno
One of the oldest players on Daegu's roster is Edgar Bruno, but that didn't stop the Brazilian striker to be tied for the best scorer on his team. He has scored five goals this season with a single assist while playing in 13 games.
It has been a fun career for the 36-year-old player who started his football journey in 2005 when he wore the jersey of Brazilian outfit Joinville-SC. Over the years he played in a large number of clubs, but the biggest one by far was the Portugal giant FC Porto. Unfortunately for him, Bruno didn't feature all that much for Porto, so he moved on and the biggest success he had was with Daegu where he is a member since 2018 with a little break after last season.
He has played 134 matches for the South Korean team and scored 55 goals with 18 assists. This is going to be his, most likely, final season, and as he readies for retirement, Bruno will try to secure a positive outcome this season for his favorite club.
