K League 1 teams compete for top six ahead of split

As the K League 1 approaches its last season with the Final A/Final B system, the race for the top six is tight. FC Seoul leads the standings, having already secured a position in Final A, but eight teams are vying for the remaining five spots. A recent goalless draw between Gangwon FC and Incheon United kept the competition chaotic, allowing a number of clubs to remain in contention. Key matches are scheduled in the upcoming rounds, including a pivotal clash between Daejeon Hana Citizen and Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors, which could impact both teams' chances of a top-four finish. The league extends to 14 teams next season, making this year's battle particularly crucial for clubs eyeing Asian Champions League spots.
