Weekend Preview Mar 16

Welcome back. Hopefully everyone is doing well in challenging times and can look forward to some football as a mental break from COVID-19.

I've added Bundesliga 2 guys. I'll be honest, mostly reflective of the lack of content for this first week where I have no clue what shape players are in two months later or what managers have thought up tactically. The other part is just to advertise that there is a fair amount of good football available this weekend.

Paik Seung Ho-- His starting seems tied to the shape in terms of how much defense they're willing to give up to get Paik's offense in. Given playing one of the weaker sides, I think he starts.


Seo Young Jae-- He started before the break but that was due to injury and the man in front just got an extension. But I'm not up to date on what the injury status is of the nominal starter so we'll see.


Lee Jae Sung-- He's been starting, often as a false 9 or second forward and dropping deeper as the match progresses so I think he start.


Kwon Chang Hoon-- He was on a good streak before hamstring injury. Hopefully he's back starting but should be in side either way.


Park Yi Young-- He had a serious shoulder injury and as a result was clumped in with players who weren't going to be in first team. I don't think that there's been an improvement in his status but my lack of knowing is why I'm putting him in here for now.


Ji Dong Won-- Hopefully actually able to contribute rather than only being fit enough to warm bench but we'll see.


Ki Sung Yueng-- He's one of the guys in training but also given short-term nature of contract, will be curious to see how it all plays out.


Son Heung Min-- Finished military duty so re-quarantining before joining teammates.


Lee Kang In-- Back in training.


UPDATE - Forgot Choi Kyoung Rok is with Karlsruher but he's out with ACL injury
