Landers vs Dinos Prediction 7 October 2026
📡 Both teams suffered defeats on October 6, but before that, it was SSG who claimed back-to-back wins over NC with scores of 6-2 and 9-0. In the standings, just one and a half games separate the rivals: SSG sit sixth, while NC are seventh. The prediction here largely hinges on the significant gap between starting pitchers Kim Min-jun and Son Myung-gi.
SSG have claimed victory in seven of their last ten head-to-head clashes with NS.
📊 SSG have claimed victory in seven of their last ten head-to-head matchups, suffering just two defeats and recording one draw. Over this stretch, the teams have combined for 107 runs, with NC being held to just two and zero runs in their most recent meetings. That said, this rivalry is still prone to sudden scoring bursts - earlier games saw scorelines like 13-1, 12-5, and 10-4.
Head-to-head statistics Landers - Dinos
Kim Min-jun gives SSG a clear edge at the start.
SSG sit sixth in the standings with a 63-73-5 record and have won six of their last ten games, despite falling to Hanwha 2-9 on October 6. Their .259 team batting average isn't particularly impressive, but 140 home runs highlight their power at the plate. In the final stretch, SSG twice dismantled NC’s pitching staff, and at home they turn to the more reliable of their two projected starters.
Match Results: SSG Landers
Three consecutive defeats have ramped up the pressure on NS’s pitching staff.
NC have dropped three straight games and slipped to seventh place with a 63-76-2 record. Their team batting average of .271 is higher than SSG’s, but they managed just two runs in their last two head-to-head games against this opponent, and were limited to a single run against LG on October 6. The team’s season ERA of 4.73 is respectable, but with Son Myung-gi set to start, NC look vulnerable early on.

⚾ Starting Pitchers
Kim Min-jun, right-hander for SSG: Sporting a 3.86 ERA across 16 starts, Kim has compiled an 8-3 record over 84 innings, allowing 68 hits and 36 runs while striking out 68. His WHIP stands at 1.25, and he has delivered eight quality starts. In each of his last four outings, Kim has worked at least five innings, with his 8-3 record underscoring the consistency he’s shown in his rookie campaign.
Son Myung-gi, right-hander for NC: Carrying a 6.25 ERA from 22 appearances (four starts), Son holds a 1-2 record through 36 innings pitched. He has surrendered 44 hits and 25 runs, tallying 33 strikeouts with a 1.67 WHIP and no quality starts to his name. His most recent start against Doosan saw him give up six runs on eight hits in just three innings of work.
⭐ Editorial Prediction
SSG head into this matchup with the most significant early edge among these five games. Kim Min-jun allows far less traffic on the bases, boasting a 1.25 WHIP compared to 1.67, and has delivered eight quality starts. Meanwhile, Son Myung-gi couldn’t make it past the fourth inning in his last outing. NC have dropped three straight and managed just two runs in their last two head-to-heads with SSG. Even factoring in SSG’s recent loss to Hanwha, the current H2H record and the starting pitching matchup both point towards a clear scenario for the hosts: an early lead, then handing things over to the bullpen. Our pick is an SSG win.
