Wiz vs Landers Prediction 23 June 2026
📡 In Suwon, two teams with contrasting positions in the standings but similar recent form go head-to-head: KT remain among the league leaders, while SSG have improved offensively and are coming off back-to-back wins. The season series has surprisingly tilted in favor of the visitors so far, so the hosts not only need to make the most of their home advantage but also reassert their control in matchups against this particular opponent.
Head-to-Head
📊 SSG lead the season series 6-3. The visitors have repeatedly found ways to challenge KT, proving they can dictate a high tempo even against the hosts’ formidable contact offense. However, the teams’ overall profiles still differ: KT sit higher in the standings and are more consistent in terms of average scoring, but their head-to-head clashes often defy expectations and break from the usual script.
H2H Stats Matches and Previous Teams Results
Wiz Team Overview
KT boast a 41-28-1 record and firmly hold second place in the standings. Their team batting average of .284 remains the best in this matchup, and 49 home runs highlight their ability to consistently get runners on base and generate offense. However, a 4.73 ERA exposes a vulnerability: KT’s pitching staff too often allows opponents back into the contest. After a 5-11 defeat, it’s crucial for KT to settle into the game early-otherwise, SSG could seize control with another powerful stretch.

SSG Landers Team Overview
SSG currently sit ninth in the standings with a 29-40-2 record. The team’s .261 batting average, 78 home runs, and a 5.57 ERA highlight their defining trait: a potent offense paired with pitching that seldom inspires confidence. Their recent 7-3 win demonstrated SSG’s ability to capitalize on their power, especially when opponents allow extra baserunners. SSG also lead the head-to-head against KT, 6-3, which gives them added confidence heading into this matchup.

⚾ Starting Pitchers
Ko Young-Pyo gets the nod for KT. He’s 5-4 this season with a 4.38 ERA, and against SSG he’s 0-1 with a 3.60 ERA. While his numbers against today’s opponent are respectable, the loss in their head-to-head and his overall season performance leave the hosts with some uncertainty on the mound. Facing a lineup that has already launched 78 home runs, Ko Young-Pyo needs to avoid mistakes in the strike zone and keep SSG from building early momentum.
Kim Kwang-woo will start for SSG. He enters with a 6-4 record and a 5.43 ERA on the year, but he’s been dominant against KT-posting a perfect 3-0 mark and a stellar 1.59 ERA. His track record versus the hosts stands out, though an ERA north of five for the season highlights his inconsistency. With KT boasting the league’s best team batting average, Kim Kwang-woo will have to handle relentless pressure from the very first inning.
⭐ Editorial Prediction
While SSG lead the head-to-head 6-3 and Kim Kon Woo boasts a stellar 1.59 ERA against KT, it’s tough to call the hosts clear favourites. The bigger story lies in the matchup dynamics: KT are hitting .284 as a team, SSG have already launched 78 home runs, and both clubs carry high team ERAs-4.73 and 5.57, respectively. Ko Young Pyo has been shaky against power-hitting lineups, while Kim Kon Woo, despite his strong personal record versus KT, still owns a 5.43 overall ERA. Unless the starting pitchers deliver near-flawless outings, this game is likely to turn into a bullpen battle-where the risks only increase. Given these factors, we like the look of over 9.5 total runs.
