Suwon FC — Gangwon FC : Match Preview and Prediction for September 21,2025

Suwon FC: A Guarantee of Goals

Currently, Suwon FC is synonymous with high-scoring football. The team sits in 10th place, desperately fighting for survival, which forces them to adopt an attacking, open style of play. The statistics speak volumes: in 12 consecutive Suwon matches, a minimum of three goals have been scored. Twelve, can you believe it? This isn’t a mere coincidence; it’s a well-established pattern.

Leaky Defense, High-Scoring Home Games

The trend continues on their home turf, where the Over 2.5 goals market has consistently hit in their last six home fixtures. The team’s Achilles’ heel is undoubtedly their defense, which resembles a sieve. Consider this staggering fact: in their last 5 matches, Suwon has conceded a shocking 15 goals! That’s an average of three goals per game. Their recent 2-4 defeat to Gwangju FC serves as a prime example. This team concedes freely and frequently.

Potent Attack Led by Ssabak

Despite their defensive woes, Suwon’s attack operates with precision and efficiency. While they’ve lost key player Willian due to injury, they boast a prolific striker in Ssabak, who was named K League Player of the Month for August. This formidable forward has already netted 13 goals this season, placing him second in the top scorer race. Even in their losing effort against Gwangju, he managed to find the back of the net. With such a porous defense and a highly effective forward, Suwon FC is practically destined to engage in open, high-scoring matches.

Gangwon FC: Riding a Wave of Momentum

Gangwon FC approaches this match in sizzling form. The team has hit an incredible stride, boasting three consecutive league victories, and recently secured a historic comeback win in the AFC Champions League against Shanghai Shenhua (2-1). Crucially, Gangwon’s attack has finally awakened. Throughout the season, they struggled with converting chances, but their recent performances have seen a breakthrough.

Offensive Resurgence

For a long period, their average goal-scoring rate dipped below one goal per match, but this narrative completely shifted in their game against FC Seoul, where Gangwon scored three goals in a thrilling 3-2 victory. This was followed by two goals against the Chinese giants. This isn’t a mere flash in the pan; it represents a new reality for their offense. Their attacking players have found their rhythm, with goals coming from various individuals, highlighting their newfound versatility in attack.

Exploiting Weak Defenses

Currently, Gangwon is on an upward trajectory, brimming with self-belief, and their offensive line poses a genuine threat. They are visiting a team with arguably the league’s weakest defense, presenting an ideal scenario for them to extend their scoring run. Expect them to press, create numerous opportunities, and find the back of the net.
