Kim Jin-Su and Hoffenheim will be facing Hamburg this weekend I expect Kim Jin-Su to make bench at least.
Lee Chung-Yong should make reserves against table leaders Leicester City this week. This should be quite a tough game for Crystal Palace and Lee. I expect Lee to get subbed on later in this game.
Ki Sung-Yueng should start for Swansea City against Aston Villa, time to recover some points.
Match of the week: Suk Hyun-Jun faces his former club Vitoria Setubal. I expect Suk Hyun-Jun to start against Vitoria Setubal as he knows this club inside and out. Hopefully he scores this week too.
Yay! Son Heung-Min finally scores. I expect him to be on the bench this week against AFC Bournemouth as he played mid-week.
Ji Dong-Won has be excluded from the squad list these last couple of weeks. I hope he makes at least bench this week against former club Borussia Dortmund.
Hong Jeong-Ho being a vital player for Augsburg, he should start this week against Borussia Dortmund. It will be a very tough game for Hong as he has to keep an eye on speedy Aubameyang and Reus.
Koo Ja-Cheol should also start against Borussia Dortmund.
Park Joo-Ho has been excluded from the squad list these last couple of weeks, I expect the same for him this week too.
