Kiwoom Heroes vs Dinos Prediction 4 September 2026
📡 NC missed their September 3rd game due to rain and head to Gocheok riding a five-game winning streak. Kiwoom, on the other hand, just snapped a losing skid with a 3-2 victory over SSG. This matchup promises a compelling pitchers’ duel: An Woo-jin has the ability to keep the hosts competitive, but Riley Thompson is enjoying a far more impressive season.
Head-to-Head
📊 The season series is all square at 6-6. Kiwum have performed notably better against NC than their bottom-of-the-table standing might suggest. However, Thompson has already bested this lineup and holds a 1-0 record with a 2.50 ERA against Kiwum, giving the visitors a key advantage in the early stages of this matchup.

Kiwoom Heroes Team Overview
Kiwoom come into this one with a 43-78-3 record, a .243 team batting average, and a 5.37 ERA. Their 3-2 win over SSG was a crucial response after a tough losing streak, but the season-long issue remains: a lack of pitching depth. The hosts will be especially reliant on An Woo-jin delivering a long outing to minimize exposure to their shaky bullpen.

⚾ Starting Pitchers
An Woo-jin enters with a 3-7 record and a 3.70 ERA. He hasn't factored into a decision against the NC Dinos this season. While Kiwoom's overall team ERA lags behind, An's numbers stand out, making him the key figure who gives the hosts a genuine shot at staying competitive.
Riley Thompson boasts a 6-1 record with a 2.92 ERA. Against Kiwoom, he's 1-0 with a 2.50 ERA. Both his season-long form and head-to-head stats offer him the edge over An Woo-jin, and he looks well positioned to deliver another strong, extended outing.
⭐ Editor's Pick
Kiwoom are coming off a win and sending the talented An Woo-jin to the mound, so this won’t be a walk in the park for the visitors. However, NC counter with Thompson, who boasts a 6-1 record and a 2.92 ERA and has already delivered a strong performance against this opponent. Over the course of the season, the difference at the plate is clear-NC hit .274 as a team compared to Kiwoom’s .243. If the starters can keep things even through five or six innings, the later stages should favor NC: their bullpen and overall roster depth inspire more confidence. With the head-to-head record even and considering current form and starting matchups, the visitors hold a slight but tangible advantage. We’re backing an NC Dinos win.
