Today s focus: Fulham vs Manchester United

Tokyo FC VS Kyoto: Tokyo FC has performed significantly in the Japanese League this season, ranking 8th with 34 points, with a record of 10 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses. The team is quite threatening on the offensive end, with a total of 38 goals, averaging nearly 1.7 goals per game, but the defensive loopholes are obvious. They have conceded 30 goals and conceded more than 1.3 goals per game, especially in the away game defense. He performed more positively at home, and recently scored 7 goals in three consecutive home wins, showing that the front line's firepower is still sharp. The team's core Brazilian foreign aid striker currently leads the scorer list with 12 goals and 5 assists, and the core state of the midfield organization has recovered, and many key passes have created opportunities for the team to score. In the new round of the game against Kyoto, Tokyo FC has obvious home advantage. They hope to continue to improve their home winning rate through active ball possession and wide penetration, while consolidating their points rankings and gaining the initiative for the qualification for the AFC Champions League next season. The head coach has strengthened tactical arrangements for the problem of defensive instability, and the team's offensive and defensive conversion efficiency has gradually improved. It is expected that this game will make full use of the speed and technology of the mid-front court combination in order to gain the initiative in key games. Kyoto's performance in the Japanese League this season is a struggle. He currently has 4 wins, 5 draws and 13 losses, with 17 points, ranking second to the bottom, and is deeply trapped in the quagmire of relegation. The team's defense is the biggest concern. They have conceded 45 goals in 22 rounds of games, conceded more than 2 goals per game, especially in the away game record, which is only 1 win, 2 draws and 8 losses, and the loopholes in the defense line are frequently exploited by opponents. Although there are highlights on the offensive end, the main forward scored 7 goals, but the overall firepower is not enough to support the rhythm of the game. The team's head coach emphasized before the game that the focus will be on defensive organization and counterattack efficiency, especially against the Tokyo FC's forward threat, and plans to find opportunities to score through quick counterattacks. Tactical 5 defender defensive counterattack mode may be adopted, and the midfielder will try to compress space as much as possible, and at the same time, use the speed of forward players to attack the opponent's defense. Considering the pressure of relegation, Kyoto's defensive discipline in the away game is crucial. Even in this game, facing Tokyo FC, which is strong at home, will strive to avoid being widened and try to find a chance to win in the counterattack.

Posco Rolling VS Jeonbuk Hyundai: Posco Rolling currently ranks fourth with 41 points and is in the championship playoffs. The situation has rebounded recently, with a winning streak in the last three games and a win-win situation, but there has been a 1-5 defeat to Suwon FC. He performed well at home, with 7 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses in 13 home games, but he only had 2 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses in front of the top 6 teams, and his tough battle ability was poor. In terms of lineup, defender Zhao Chengxu was absent for a long time, forward An Zaijun was injured since February, and midfielder Qi Chengyong's cruciate ligament strain was reimbursed for the season, affecting midfield interception and offense and defense conversion. Jeonbuk Hyundai leads the standings with 60 points. He has strong away combat effectiveness, with 10 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in 12 away games, and has won all of his last 6 away games. Recently, he has won 7 consecutive league wins, with an average of 2.4 goals per game. The offense relies on Cho Kyu-sung (15 goals) and Yoon Bi-Garan (8 assists), and only conceded 6 away goals on the defensive end. However, there will be a semi-final of the Korean Cup in three days, and coach Boyet may rotate some of the main players. From the perspective of tactical style, Pohang iron-making is usually 4-2-3-1 formation, organizing and dispatching in the midfield, and creating threats by side offense and counterattack; Jeonbuk Hyundai has diverse tactics, corner kicks and free kicks are efficient, and defense adopts regional joint defense combined with man-to-peer tracking, and tearing the defense through high-position compression and precise passes and cuts. In the historical confrontation, Jeonbuk has won 5 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses in the last 10 times, and Jeonbuk has reversed Pohang 3-2 away in the first leg of this season. But Posco has won 1 win and 1 draw against Jeonbuk in the last two home games. According to comprehensive analysis, although Jeonbuk Hyundai may rotate, its overall strength, away performance and psychological advantages are obvious. We are optimistic that Jeonbuk Hyundai will take away three points away.

Seoul FC VS Ulsan Hyundai: Seoul FC has performed stably in the season, currently with 13 wins, 5 draws, 6 losses, and 44 points, catching up with the top spot. He contributed 35 goals on the offensive end, averaging 1.6 goals per game, and his defensive data also improved, with his average conceded to 1.1 goals per game. He has remained unbeaten in the last seven league rounds, winning 4 of them, and the forward core scored 10 goals and had 6 assists, which is the most important fulcrum for the offense. Seoul FC's midfield interception efficiency has increased, limiting the opponent's chances of organizing offense and allowing the team to take the initiative in offense and defense conversion. As they are about to play against Ulsan Hyundai, the head coach particularly emphasizes the importance of high pressure in the frontcourt and quick return to defense, striving to score key three-pointers in front of home fans in order to continue to be on the top. Ulsan Hyundai ranked fourth with 42 points, with 12 wins, 6 draws and 6 losses in the season, becoming one of the teams with the strongest offensive firepower in the Korean League with 42 goals, with averaging nearly 1.9 goals per game. However, loopholes appear frequently on the defensive end, conceding more than 30 goals, affecting the points ranking. Their forward line is blooming at multiple points, and many players can score goals, but the defensive formation is not compact enough and is often counterattacked by opponents. In this game, Ulsan Hyundai must solve the defensive problems, especially the wing protection and central defender coordination. If Seoul's core striker can be effectively curbed and counterattack speeds, they have the opportunity to grab points away and narrow the points gap back to a minimum.
