Ulsan will host Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors at the Ulsan Munsu Football Stadium on Tuesday in the second leg of their 2023-24 AFC Champions League quarterfinal clash.
The home side have enjoyed a strong start to their league campaign and will hope they can carry that momentum onto the continental stage this week. They beat newly-promoted Gimcheon Sangmu in their last match, with Jang Si-young and former Schalke man Dong-gyeong Lee handing the Tigers a three-goal lead heading into the break before their opponents reduced the deficit in the second-half.
Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors, meanwhile, have endured a slow start to their domestic campaign but remain hopeful of extending their run in the Champions League. They played out a 1-1 draw against Suwon in their last match, falling behind early after the restart before Tiago Orobo levelled the scores minutes later to register his maiden goal for the club.
The two sides played out a 1-1 draw in their first-leg clash last week with Min-kyu Song handing Jeonbuk the lead after just four minutes before Orobo squandered a chance to double the lead from the spot.
Ulsan improved markedly in the second-half and were rewarded for their troubles in the 77th minute with Myeong-Jae Lee levelling the scores in superb fashion.
