Ulsan, on the verge of losing two consecutive regular league games for the first time since its founding, will secure an early victory?

Ulsan Hyundai is on the verge of an early victory in K League 1.

Ulsan, led by coach Hong Myung-bo굿모닝토토, will play the 35th round of Hana One Q K League 1 2023 against Daegu FC at Ulsan Munsu Stadium on the 29th. Depending on the results of the game, early victory can be confirmed, attracting the attention of many fans. Ulsan is currently in first place with 67 points (20 wins, 7 draws, 7 losses), with Pohang (59 points) following closely behind.

The game between Jeonbuk Hyundai and Pohang Steelers on the 28th is of great importance. If Pohang loses or draws against Jeonbuk and Ulsan wins against Daegu on the 29th, the point gap between the two teams will widen to up to 11 points. Even if Ulsan loses all three remaining games, the point difference cannot be overturned.

Ulsan is in a position where it cannot let down its guard. If they lose this game against Daegu and Pohang wins against Jeonbuk, the point gap will be reduced to 5 points. If Ulsan loses to Pohang on the 12th of next month, the point difference will be reduced to 2 points, so a win over Daegu is the best scenario.

If Ulsan confirms the championship, it will be the first team to win two consecutive regular league championships and the fourth overall. In this case, it could be the best scenario for Ulsan as it can focus more on the 2023-24 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Champions League (ACL).
