Pohang Steelers host Gangwon at the Pohang Steel Yard in the K League 1 on Sunday, looking to extend their winning run in the competition to three games.

Since their 1-0 loss to Gwangju on May 18, Park Tae-ha's side beat Anyang 2-0 on the road followed by a 3-1 defeat of Daejeon Hana. It marked an upturn in form for them.

With 25 points from 16 games, Pohang are fourth in the K League 1, trailing leaders Jeonbuk by 10 points albeit with a game in hand.

Meanwhile, Gangwon are down in ninth place and have accrued four points fewer than Pohang. In their last game, they lost 1-0 to Anyang for their seventh top-flight defeat of the season.

A quickfire double from Matheus Santos in the 22nd and 26th minute gave the visitors a two-goal cushion, but Vitor Gabriel pulled one back for Gangwon midway through the second half. Anyang responded with a third goal in the penultimate minute of normal time.
