Lee Dong Jun-- A lot of travel right after signing with Hertha and ahead of an early kickoff will make his debut hard to predict though one might hope for an appearance late though even that feels a bit hopeful given complete lack of integration time.
Jeong Woo Yeong-- Given minutes Tuesday and travel, I suspect he will be on the bench given decent couple of offensive showings for starting XIs without him.
Lee Jae Sung-- A decent chance of starting though he had a lot of minutes with KNT.
Hwang Hee Chan-- I don't see him in training pictures so not quite so close yet.
Lee Kang In-- Started and was one of the later subs off. LKI started off well with some good dribbles and a nice chipped throughball that was scored by an offside player, but soon looked a bit off in terms of energy and synchronization with his teammates. As a result, he only had sporadic positive moments between long periods of being on the margins. And continuing concern is the reluctance to have Kubo and LKI on the pitch at the same time which could put minutes at risk. As a result, suspect a bench role with short turnaround.
Son Heung Min-- Returned to training but given a cup match, may be saved on the bench for midweek where he's likely to get some minutes either way.
Hwang Ui Jo-- Should start given extra day of rest and lack of alternatives.
Suk Hyun Jun-- I don't know whats going on with him with no news.
