Ulsan sit 3rd with 37 points, while Daejeon lag behind in 10th with 29. While Daejeon have built some home momentum, Ulsan have already proven their ability to grind out tough road wins this season. Despite last year's minor dip in form, Ulsan remain a true K-League powerhouse—backed by Hyundai's deep financial support, their roster depth and foundational strength easily give them the long-term edge in this matchup.
