FC Seoul — Buriram United : Match Preview and Prediction for September 30,2025

Seoul’s Attacking Prowess and Finishing Woes

The Korean club approaches this match following a highly revealing performance in the league against Jeonbuk Motors. The final score of 1:1 shouldn’t mislead; a closer look at the stats reveals that FC Seoul unleashed a staggering 20 shots at the opponent’s goal. Twenty! However, 15 of these were off target, indicating immense attacking intent but significant issues with conversion.

Systematic Offensive Pressure

Such relentless activity in front of the opposition’s goal isn’t a fluke; it’s a systematic approach. Seoul’s coach, Kim Gi-dong, explicitly lamented the team’s inefficiency in finishing after that game. The team dominated, maintaining 62% possession and creating chance after chance, yet they only scored thanks to an own goal by the opponent in the 95th minute. This suggests that sustained pressure on the opposing defense will be a constant, making goals only a matter of time.

High-Scoring Home Form

Recent match statistics strongly indicate a high-scoring potential. In 6 of FC Seoul’s last 8 games, the total goals exceeded 2.5. This trend becomes even more pronounced at home, where at least three goals were scored in 4 out of their last 5 matches. We’ve seen exhilarating scorelines like 3:2, 3:0, and even a fiery 6:2. The team plays open football, generating numerous opportunities for themselves while also allowing opponents chances.

Buriram’s Dominant Attacking Form

The Thai champions are in excellent form, particularly in attack. Their last league match against Ayutthaya United ended in a convincing 4:1 victory, with three goals scored in the first half alone. This demonstrates that Buriram doesn’t rely on defensive play and is capable of deciding the outcome of a match right from kick-off.

Consistent High-Scoring Away Record

A crucial aspect is Buriram’s away performance. There’s a rock-solid trend: in their last 5 consecutive away games, at least three goals have been scored. They maintain their attacking style regardless of where they play. These matches featured scorelines such as 2:2, 1:2, 2:3, and 1:4 – all exceeding the goal line.

Quality Goal Creation and Key Players

Statistics from their previous game confirm their offensive strength. Buriram registered 13 shots, 5 of which were on target, and their Expected Goals (xG) figure stood at an impressive 2.58. This indicates that the team generates not just many, but very high-quality scoring opportunities. Their forward, Faizal Mulic, scored a brace in that match, further highlighting the presence of in-form goal-scorers within the Thai squad.
