Landers vs Doosan Bears Prediction 4 September 2026
📡 SSG wrapped up their series against Kiwoom with a 2-3 defeat, while Doosan fell 0-1 to LG, suffering their third consecutive loss. The new series in Incheon brings a dramatic shift to the opening matchup: the hosts send Pedro Avila to the mound with a 1.65 ERA, while Doosan counter with Park Shin-ji, who holds a 5.70 ERA. This marks the biggest gap between starting pitchers on Friday’s slate.
Head-to-Head
📊 Doosan lead the season series 7-5. Despite SSG sitting eighth in the standings, their head-to-head record remains competitive, and just two home wins would be enough to level things up. In the opening game of this new series, SSG enjoy a rare advantage-a starting pitcher whose individual numbers are significantly better than the team’s overall ERA.

Doosan Bears Team Overview
Doosan are currently fifth in the standings with a 61-55-4 record and boast one of the league’s best team ERAs at 3.63. However, their offense is going through a rough patch: across three games against LG, they managed just two runs, with the latest clash ending in a 0-1 defeat. While their strong pitching staff keeps Doosan competitive, the lack of run support is becoming an increasingly glaring issue.

⚾ Starting Pitchers
Pedro Avila enters with a 4-1 record and an impressive 1.65 ERA. He hasn’t faced Doosan yet this season. Compared to SSG’s team ERA of 5.37, Avila’s individual numbers stand out in a league of their own, giving the hosts a real chance to ease the burden on the more vulnerable arms in their bullpen.
Park Sin-Ji is 0-0 with a 5.70 ERA. He has yet to make a decision against SSG. His stats fall well short of Avila’s, and his lack of consistency on the mound could prove costly against a lineup capable of stringing together big innings.
⭐ Editor's Pick
Looking at the standings and overall form, Doosan have the edge, and they also lead the season series 7-5. However, this pick is all about the specific matchup on the mound, where the starting pitchers present a stark contrast that outweighs broader team profiles. Avila is having a stellar campaign with a 1.65 ERA, while Park Sin-ji sits at 5.70. Doosan have managed just two runs over their last three games, so it's tough to see their offense bouncing back against an ace of Avila’s caliber. SSG don’t need to play nine perfect innings-they just need to capitalise early with their advantage on the mound and put up some runs against the visitors’ more vulnerable starter. We’re backing an SSG win.
