Ulsan and Jeonbuk Motors won handsomely last weekend with both teams netting four goals each. Gangwon have climbed up to third beating Incheon United 2-1, with things going smoothly under the tutelage of Kim Byung-Soo. However, their failure to keep a clean sheet cost me a treble. We’ll be hoping for better luck this time around with our tempting 7/1 treble.

Saturday 13 June
Ulsan 13/20
Draw 26/10
Seongnam 4/1
Ulsan’s Brazilian talisman Junior Negoa’s six goals in the opening five matches saw him crowned player of the month. The hosts come off a convincing 4-0 win at Pohang Steelers. Seongnam coach Kim Nam-Il received the manager of the month award but there’s no time to celebrate as his troops unbeaten run was ended in a 2-1 defeat against Daegu. The visitors are unbeaten on the road so don’t go into any exotic bets in this one. Go for the straight home win at 13/20.
Suwon Bluewings 14/10
Draw 22/10
Gangwon 37/20
Suwon Bluewings haven’t scored in two weeks and will be looking to Australian striker Adam Taggart to improve on his poor finishing and net his first goal of the season. Gangwon made it back-to-back wins with their first win on the road, a week after shocking the champions Jeonbuk Motors. The hosts went unbeaten in three meetings against Gangwon last season, picking up two wins. I’m backing Both Teams to Score (Yes) at 8/10, instead of picking a winner.
Jeonbuk Motors 1/5
Draw 47/10
Incheon United 25/2
Jeonbuk Motors are short-priced and are strong favourites by virtue of winning four times and losing once in five games. Incheon United are rock bottom at this early stage and they will need a miracle to penetrate the best defence in the league, who are yet to concede a goal on home soil as well. Take home to Win-To-Nil (Yes) at 6/10 to add value.
Sangju Sangmu 39/20
Draw 9/4
Pohang Steelers 13/10
Sangju Sangmu played back-to-back home games which they won comfortably (1-0 and 2-0), and then played consecutive away matches, drawing both by a 1-1 score-line. Pohang Steelers were hammered 4-0 by Ulsan and will be desperate to get back to winning ways. The past five meetings between these sides has seen both teams score. Add Both Teams to Score (Yes) to your weekend multiples at 8/10.
Sunday 14 June
Gwangju 31/20
Draw 2/1
Busan I’Park 18/10
Gwangju picked up their first win of the campaign in dramatic fashion. Brazilian Felipe capitalised on poor goalkeeping and bagged a 90th-minute goal to edge Suwon Bluewings 1-0. Busan I’Park come into the clash with three consecutive draws and will be hoping to pick up a win. However, I’m tempted to back the draw at 2/1 odds.
Daegu 11/10
Draw 43/20
Seoul 49/20
Daegu ended a four-game winless run by picking up their first victory (2-1) at Seongnam. Seoul come into the clash with back-to-back defeats both on home turf and now encounter two away fixtures. A tightly-contested affair is expected. Take Draw in the Half Time market at 21/20.
TREBLE TIPPED @ 7/1
Ulsan Win 13/20
Jeonbuk Motors – Home Win to Nil (Yes) 6/10
Gwangju vs Busan I’Park – Draw 2/1
