Although Jeju SK boasts a high unbeaten rate, an excessive number of draws has limited their overall win rate. Historically, FC Anyang holds a commanding advantage with five wins in their last eight encounters, giving them a distinct psychological edge. However, having fallen to Jeju SK in their most recent away league fixture, Anyang faces the dual pressure of seeking revenge while avoiding back-to-back defeats. Regarding squad availability, FC Anyang boasts a fully fit roster, whereas Jeju SK will miss key midfielder Lee Chang-min—an absence that severely tests Jeju's midfield control and transition play. Under the single-elimination format of cup football, the margin for error is razor-thin, where a single lapse in detail could decide the outcome.
