Ulsan Hyundai Draw no Bet
Current K-League champions Ulsan Hyundai have started their title defence in formidable fashion, winning 12 of their first 15 games of the season to open up an early 11-point lead at the summit of the division. Ulsan look a cut above the competition at present, though they will have to be at their best to beat a Jeonbuk Motors outfit in the midst of a five-game surge without defeat in league and cup. With a measure of caution applied, our first Jeonbuk Motors vs Ulsan Hyundai prediction recommends backing the visitors in the draw no bet stakes.
Both Teams to Score
With both Jeonbuk Motors and Ulsan Hyundai in strong form ahead of their encounter on Saturday, we fancy both sides to impact the scoresheet at the Jeonju World Cup Stadium. Jeonbuk have failed to score just twice in their last eight domestic assignments, while Ulsan have a perfect 100 strike rate in the K-League after 15 fixtures. With attacking quality present in both camps, we recommend a wager on BTTS this weekend.

Jeonbuk Motors
Jeonbuk Motors were deployed in a 4-1-4-1 formation in their last fixture against Suwon City and having posted a 3-1 victory in that contest, they should use a similar shape on Saturday. Jenonbuk are in seventh position in the K-League and they can climb one place with a win this weekend.
Predicted Lineup for Jeonbuk Motors: Jeog-Hoon – Moon-Hwan, Tae-Wook, Ja-Ryong, Jin-Su – Jin-Seop, Dong-Jun, Seung-Ho, Soo-Bin, Kyo-Won – Gue-Sung
Ulsan Hyundai
Ulsan Hyundai dropped a couple of points in a surprise 3-3 draw at home to Daejeon Hana Citizen in their last runout, though they did show plenty of spirit to rescue that point with two late goals. Ulsan, who favour a 4-2-3-1 formation, have lost just once in 15 league games so far this term.
Predicted Lineup for Ulsan Hyundai: Hyeon-Woo – Seol Young-Woo, Kee-Hee, Young-Gwon, Myung-Jae – Park Yong-Woo, Gyu-Sung – Won-Sang, Jae-Hwan, Qazaishvili – Min-Kyu
Player to Watch – Joo Min-Kyu
33-year-old Joo Min-Kyu is showing no signs of slowing down in the K-League and the Ulsan star notched his seventh and eighth goal of the campaign in last week’s 3-3 draw with Daejeon Hana Citizen. The new signing is a potential match-winner and should be one to watch out for again on Saturday.
Joo-Min-Kyu joined Ulsan in the off-season from Jeju United having performed with distinction for the latter with 39 goals in his last two seasons. The ace marksman has never represented South Korea at international level despite his heroics in the K-League, which some observers think is a mistake.
