Match Analysis
Suwon City FC host Ulsan Hyundai FC at Suwon Sports Complex in K League 1 (matchday 5). Kick-off is Sunday 16 March 2025 at 05:00 UK time.
Form Guide
Suwon City FC — last 10 games: 1W 3D 6L, averaging 0.60 points per game. Last five: D L L W L. They are averaging 1.20 goals per game and conceding 2.10 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. However, 2.10 goals conceded per game is a concern — opposing attacks have exploited them regularly. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings (10%).
In front of their own supporters, Suwon City FC have posted 4W 2D 4L from their last 10 home games — 1.40 PPG. At home they are averaging 1.90 goals scored and 1.70 conceded per game. Their home PPG of 1.40 is noticeably stronger than their overall 0.60 — Suwon City FC are significantly better at home than their overall form suggests.
Looking at their last 10 matches, Ulsan Hyundai FC stand at 7W 3D 0L — 2.40 PPG. Last five: D W W D W. They are scoring at 1.90 per game and conceding 0.90. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is an exceptional defensive record — they are keeping clean sheets more often than not.
Ulsan Hyundai FC's form when playing away from home: 3W 4D 3L across their last 10 road games (1.30 PPG). Away from home they average 0.70 goals scored and 0.70 conceded per game. 5 away clean sheets from their last 10 away games (50%) — they are hard to break down on the road. Away from home, both teams have scored in only 30% of games — a low rate that backs BTTS No when they travel. Their away PPG of 1.30 is notably below their overall 2.40 — form away from home has been a clear weakness recently.
The form data does not support a straightforward home bias here. Ulsan Hyundai FC are 1.80 PPG ahead (2.40 vs 0.60), making them the form-guided selection despite the trip.
Head to Head
Ulsan Hyundai FC have tended to come out on top in this fixture, winning 4 of the 6 H2H matches we hold against 1 for Suwon City FC.
Goals have been a feature of this fixture — the 6 H2H matches in our data averaged 3.8 per game, which gives Over 2.5 a solid head-to-head foundation. The most recent of those, on 23 Nov 2024, ended Suwon City FC 2–4 Ulsan Hyundai FC — a Ulsan Hyundai FC win.
The H2H data backs the away side. Ulsan Hyundai FC have won 4 of 6 H2H matches, and at 3.8 goals per game the goals market also points upward — the away win and Over 2.5 combination has a head-to-head case.
Trading Patterns
Suwon City FC in-play and half-time data (last 76 games, 37 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 73% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 62% of those occasions; of the 19 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 32%; of the 36 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 31%; BTTS occurs in 60% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 57% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 36%.
Ulsan Hyundai FC in-play and half-time data (last 76 games, 37 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 51% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 83% of the time; of the 12 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 50%; BTTS occurs in 49% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 43% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Suwon City FC 59% versus Ulsan Hyundai FC 53%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Suwon City FC 57% | Ulsan Hyundai FC 53%). There is an in-play dynamic worth noting: Suwon City FC surrender their half-time lead 32% of the time, while Ulsan Hyundai FC have come from behind at the break to draw or win in 50% of cases — a combination that makes laying the hosts at HT a potential angle.
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Suwon City FC 0.87 xG and Ulsan Hyundai FC 1.19 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Suwon City FC attack 0.935 / defence 0.978 | Ulsan Hyundai FC attack 1.083 / defence 0.862. League average goals — home 1.075 / away 1.120. Data: built from Suwon City FC's last 37 games and Ulsan Hyundai FC's last 37. Some of those games are older results, so treat these probabilities as directional rather than precise.
Result probabilities: Suwon City FC 27% | Draw 30% | Ulsan Hyundai FC 43%. Fair-value odds: Suwon City FC 3.72 | Draw 3.35 | Ulsan Hyundai FC 2.31. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 30% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 34% | BTTS Yes probability 40% | Total xG 2.05. Under 2.5 is the strongly backed market at 66% probability — total xG of 2.05 sits well below the 2.5 threshold. The model is projecting a tight, low-scoring match. BTTS No at 60% is only a slight lean — the model gives both sides a fair chance of scoring, so No isn't a clear standalone call.
Summary & Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Ulsan Hyundai FC at 43% — marginal model lean. Recent form and the head-to-head data both align with the Poisson read — multi-source corroboration increases confidence in this selection. With a 30% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Ulsan Hyundai FC offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.
Poisson projects 2.05 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 66% probability — low conviction — though the H2H data averaging 3.8 goals per game across 6 H2H matches points the other way.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is No at 60%. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Suwon City FC 50% (last 10 home games) | Ulsan Hyundai FC 30% (last 10 away games).
The Poisson model's sample (Suwon City FC 37 games, Ulsan Hyundai FC 37) includes some older results, so its projections carry extra uncertainty — weight recent form and the odds accordingly.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Suwon City FC and Ulsan Hyundai FC finished level at 1-1 at Suwon Sports Complex, Regular Season - 5, in the K League 1. That is the final score; the rest of this report grades it against what the data forecast beforehand.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Suwon City FC 0.87 xG and Ulsan Hyundai FC 1.19 xG, a combined 2.05. The scoreboard read 1-1 for 2 actual goals. Both sides finished within a goal of their individual projections, so the scoreline sat close to the model's expected shape. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Suwon City FC attack 0.94 / defence 0.98 against Ulsan Hyundai FC attack 1.08 / defence 0.86, drawn from 37/37 games (Blended).
On the result, the model split it Suwon City FC 27% | Draw 30% | Ulsan Hyundai FC 43%, with Ulsan Hyundai FC to win its most likely call at 43%. The actual draw had been the model's second-ranked read at 30%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 34%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 61% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 40% and the match saw both sides score — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 55% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Suwon City FC 57%, Ulsan Hyundai FC 53%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 56%, which matched the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Suwon City FC's trading profile (76 games, 37 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 59% of their matches — today it did.
Ulsan Hyundai FC's trading profile (76 games, 37 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 53% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 36% of the time, and conceded here.
Form vs Result
On form, Ulsan Hyundai FC arrived the stronger side — 1.95 PPG against 1.16. The form guide was only half-right: the stronger side did not lose, but could not convert the edge into a win.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (miss), form (miss). A poor return for the projections: the match defied the majority of what the numbers expected.
