Pohang Steelers vs Shandong Taishan Predictions

Pohang can get back to winning form in Wednesday's Asian Champions League Elite (ACL) contest.

A home win with over 1.5 goals should prove the best bet at Steelyard Stadium.

Pohang Steelers won 7 of their last 9 home matches (ACL)
Pohang Steelers scored 2+ goals in their last 7 home wins (ACL)
Shandong Taishan lost 8 of their last 11 away matches (ACL)
Shandong Taishan conceded 2+ goals in 8 of their last 11 away matches (ACL)

Head to Head

Pohang Steelers will meet for the fifth time on Wednesday. Pohang won three of four previous encounters including a 4-2 victory in Jinan ten years ago.

Pohang Steelers Form

Pohang Steelers their attention to the ACL after a 1-1 draw at Seoul last weekend. Wanderson's first-half strike secured a valuable point for Park Tae-Ha's men.

The Steelers have now failed to win any of their last five matches played since the start of October.

While short in recent form, the Koreans retain a superb home record in this competition, remaining unbeaten in their last nine matches in Pohang (W7, D2).

Pohang boss Tae-Ha has no new injury concerns to deal with. Dong-hee Lee and Ho-Jae Lee remain long-term absentees for the home side.

Seong-Jun Jo could drop out of the first XI after he was withdrawn at half-time in the draw with Seoul. Jeong Jae-Hee is a likely replacement.

Shandong Taishan Form

Shandong make the trip to South Korea unbeaten in their last four matches following a 2-1 win against nine-man Meizhou Hakka on Saturday. Zeca's second-half strike secured the points in a fiery confrontation at Jinan Olympic Sports Center.

While in decent recent form, Choi Kang-Hee's men have struggled in previous away matches. Taishan Dui lost five and won only two of their last nine road trips.

The Japanese outfit also tends to struggle in continental fixtures. Shandong lost eight of their last ten away ACL ties since 2019.

Shandong Taishan Team News

Head coach Kang-Hee has a fully fit squad available ahead of the trip to Pohang.

Brazilian forward Zeca will likely keep his place as the focal point in the away attack.
