Jeju United FC vs Pohang Steelers Prediction (18.07.2026)

Pohang Steelers continues to be among the main contenders for the top spots in the South Korean K1 League. The team is only one point behind the second place in the standings, and this week they are set to visit Jeju United, who is in the lower half of the table and does not impress with consistency in their performances.

Jeju United has not won in their last four league matches, although they managed to secure draws in the last two rounds. Pohang Steelers, on the other hand, enters the match with much more confidence, having won their last two matches and a total of five out of their last seven league games. The guests are performing solidly away from home, which further increases their chances of leaving with a positive result. Although the first match between the two teams this season was won by Jeju United, the current form is decidedly in favor of Pohang.

I expect Pohang Steelers to solidify their good run and avoid defeat. The difference in current form between the two teams is palpable, and the stable performances of the guests away from home lead me to lean towards a prediction for a double chance X2.
