Daejeon are set to host Ulsan HD in the 18th round of the K-League, seeking to move closer to survival. As both sides eye a return to winning ways, Ulsan arrives for the match placed fifth and Daejeon 10th in the standings. Ulsan’s two straight wins in their last two visits here persuade us to go for an away win in our prediction.
Daejeon’s 10-game winless streak at home in league matches is convincing enough of their struggles this season. The last time the hosts won a competitive home match was in November 2025.
Their 3-1 win against Seoul was the culmination of six straight home victories, and they haven’t managed a repeat since. The 0-0 draw with Jeju last time out left them winless in six league games.
Ulsan haven’t had things go their way in recent times. They are coming off a 3-1 defeat at home against Jeonbuk. That was their second defeat in three winless outings.
Having fallen to Daejeon in each of their last three meetings will cause a few jitters at Ulsan, but having lost at home in all those three leaves some hope.
The last two meetings with Daejeon away from home came with wins, and the visitors will hope for no changes to that script. They’ve also posted three wins in their last six matches in the league and won half of their eight away league games.

Our Daejeon Citizen vs Ulsan HD FC Prediction
Two sides have yet to taste victory in the Korean topflight this season. One of them is Daejeon, and they will be keen on changing that stat. It has been such a poor campaign for the hosts that they remain winless at home so far this season.
Coming into this match having failed to score in four of their last six matches adds to the pressure. UIsan will want to take advantage, having beaten Daejeon in their last two visits here. Our prediction for Daejeon v Ulsan is that Ulsan HD wins.
