Wiz vs Dinos Prediction 23 September 2026
📡 KT head into their home fixture as KBO leaders, extending their strong September run with an 8-2 win over SSG. NC, meanwhile, suffered a 5-8 defeat to Samsung, pushing their losing streak to eight games. The prediction particularly highlights the stark contrast in current offensive form: KT are averaging nearly seven runs per game this month, while the Dinos have seen a significant drop-off in their output.
KT have claimed victory in seven out of ten matches against NS, outscoring them by a round difference of 71 to 41.
📊 KT have claimed victory in 7 of the last 10 head-to-head matchups, outscoring their opponents 71-41. Over this stretch, the hosts have posted exactly 10 runs on three occasions and have reached at least 7 runs twice more. NC did take the two most recent meetings in the August series, but the overall trend still heavily favours KT, who have been far more productive offensively.

Match Results: Wiz
Eight consecutive defeats have turned the end of NS’s season into a full-blown crisis.
NC post a season batting average of .270, averaging 5.02 runs scored per game but allowing 5.30. Their starting rotation holds a 4.50 ERA, while the bullpen sits at 3.82. Heading into Tuesday, the Dinos had dropped six of their last ten, and their losing streak continued. The pitching staff has been a particular concern in recent weeks: in September, the team is conceding over six runs per game-a worrying trend when facing one of the KBO’s most explosive offenses.

⚾ Starting Pitchers
Ko Young-Pyo is set to start for KT. This season, he holds a 4-4 record with a 4.50 ERA, but against NC Dinos he’s struggled, going 0-1 with a 9.90 ERA. That’s a worrying sign for the home side: his head-to-head numbers against this opponent are poor, and after a high-scoring game, there’s every chance this series could keep up the offensive pace. For KT, it’s crucial that Ko Young-Pyo at least navigates the opening innings without collapsing and handing NC an early lead.
Kim Joon-Won will take the mound for NC Dinos. He’s posted a 0-0 record and a spotless 0.00 ERA both overall and against KT this season. While those numbers look impressive on paper, the sample size is extremely limited, making it tough to draw any firm conclusions. For the visitors, it’s more of a gamble on an untested arm, but facing a KT lineup that just put up 11 runs, any lack of command could quickly turn into trouble.
⭐ Editor’s Prediction
The uncertainty around the starting pitchers takes away the usual edge of analyzing a specific pitching matchup, so team metrics play a bigger role here. KT have shown far more consistency throughout the season, posting a .283 batting average compared to .270 for their opponents, and they boast a stronger rotation as well as a more reliable bullpen. The gap is even more evident in current form: the hosts are enjoying a strong September and are back in winning rhythm, while NC have slumped to eight consecutive losses. KT also dominate the recent head-to-head, leading 7-3 over the last 10 meetings with a 71:41 run differential. Even without confirmed starters, KT’s deeper lineup and steadier relief pitching give them more ways to control all nine innings. Our pick: KT to win.
