LG Twins vs Hanwha Eagles Prediction 20 September 2026
📡 LG head into Sunday riding a six-game winning streak, having edged Hanwha 2-1 to solidify their grip on third place. The visitors, meanwhile, haven't picked up a win since midweek, though their offense remains one of the most potent in the KBO this season. LG send Carlos Carrasco to the mound, while Hanwha counter with promising young left-hander Hwang Jun-seo.
Hanwha consistently put up four runs in games against LG.
📊 Over their last 10 head-to-head clashes, Hanwha hold a 6-4 edge, despite falling 1-2 on Saturday. Across those games, the Eagles have racked up 84 runs and scored at least four in six outings. The series has featured explosive results like 19-3, 15-11, 14-4, and 11-15, proving that even against top-tier starters, Hanwha consistently find ways to put together big offensive stretches.
Head-to-head statistics LG Twins - Hanwha Eagles
LG have put together a six-game winning streak, built on the back of dominant pitching.
LG own a 74-55-1 record, a .267 batting average, 121 home runs, and a team ERA of 4.86. Their six-game winning streak has coincided with a marked improvement on the mound: they swept Samsung twice, beat NC twice, routed KT 12-1, and then held Hanwha to just one run. However, their season-long ERA remains relatively high, so it would be unwise to rule out a productive showing from the visitors in response.
Match Results: LG Twins
Hanwha are struggling in the standings, but they still boast one of the most potent offenses in the KBO.
Hanwha currently sit eighth with a 54-71-4 record, but their offensive firepower is far greater than their league position suggests: they boast a .276 batting average and have hit 162 home runs. Over their last four games, Hanwha have scored 3, 4, 4, and 1 run, twice surpassing the current individual line. On the season, Hanwha average roughly 5.8 runs per game, so even during this winless stretch, their lineup remains a genuine threat.

⚾ Starting Pitchers
Carlos Carrasco, the right-hander for LG, enters with a 5-2 record and a 3.35 ERA. He’s started all eight of his appearances, tossing 45⅔ innings while allowing just 37 hits and striking out 34. Carrasco has surrendered 20 runs and boasts an impressive 0.96 WHIP. He’s delivered five quality starts but has yet to complete a game or record a shutout. Notably, Carrasco rarely puts free runners on base-he’s issued only seven walks-so Hanwha will need to generate traffic through hits rather than walks.
Hwan Jun Seo, the lefty for Hanwha, stands at 1-2 with a 5.48 ERA. He’s featured in 26 games, making seven starts: over 47⅔ innings, he’s given up 53 hits, struck out 50, allowed 31 runs, and posted a 1.70 WHIP. Seo has yet to register a quality start, complete game, or shutout this season. Over his last three starts, he’s been tagged for 12 runs across just 11 innings, leaving Hanwha’s offense with plenty of work to do if the visitors fall behind early.
⭐ Editor’s Prediction
Carrasco stands out as the main obstacle to this pick: with a 3.35 ERA and a 0.96 WHIP, he makes the opening half of any game a tough challenge for opposing offenses. However, Hanwha’s line is set at just 4 runs over nine innings, and this team has blasted 162 home runs, consistently surpassing that benchmark throughout the season. In their last 10 head-to-head meetings, the Eagles have scored at least four runs six times, with several games turning into outright slugfests. Another factor to consider is Hwan Jun Seo’s inconsistency: if LG grab an early lead, Hanwha will be forced to play aggressively at the plate all game long. Even if Carrasco limits them to two or three runs, one productive late inning could be enough to clear the line. Here, we’re backing Hanwha’s team total over 3.5 runs.
