Gimcheon Sangmu vs Pohang Steelers Prediction and Betting Tips | June 14th 2025

Gimcheon Sangmu and Pohang Steelers return to action in the South Korean K League 1 when they lock horns at the Gimcheon Sports Complex on Saturday. Jeong-yong Jung’s men head into the weekend on a four-game winning streak against the visitors and will be looking to extend this dominant streak.

Gimcheon Sangmu failed to arrest their slump in form last time out, as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Suwon FC at the Gimcheon Sports Complex after giving up their lead in the 89th minute.

Jung’s side have now gone five straight games without a win, picking up two draws and losing three, including a 3-1 extra-time defeat against Bucheon FC in the round of 16 of the Korean Cup on May 14.

Gimcheon Sangmu have picked up 25 points from their 17 K League 1 matches so far to sit fifth in the standings, level on points with sixth-placed FC Seoul.

In stark contrast, Pohang Steelers maintained their newfound form last time out when they fought back from behind to claim a 2-1 victory over Gangwon FC at the Pohang Steel Yard.

Tae-Ha Park’s men have won three back-to-back games, scoring seven goals and conceding twice, having managed just one victory from the five games preceding this run.

With 28 points from 17 matches, Pohang Steelers are currently fourth in the league standings, one point behind third-placed Ulsan HD.
