Game preview & prediction

Seoul Thunders host LG Sakers on 18 November 2026 in the KBL, with the Thunders the clear favourite as the model gives them a 64% chance of winning and an 86-82 projected score. Seoul has gone 11-2 in all 13 games this season, averaging 84.2 points and allowing 79.5, and sits first in the league; at home they are 5-1, scoring 83.2 and conceding 79.8. Their last five games include victories over Suwon KT 85-78 at home and Mobis Phoebus 81-76 away, and a loss to Wonju DB 76-84 away. LG has a 6-7 record in 13 games, averaging 87.5 points and giving up 88.0, and is fifth in the standings; on the road they are 4-5, scoring 86.6 and allowing 88.8. Their last five games feature wins over Seoul Knights 101-72 and Goyang Sono 86-85, and a loss to KCC Egis 74-84. Historically LG has won nine of the ten meetings, with the most recent victory 93-86 on 15 October 2026. The model projects a total of 167.3 points and a 5% chance of overtime; the Thunders are 64% likely to cover the home line. The game will hinge on Seoul's defence, which has held opponents to 79.5 points per game so far this season.

The middle ring is the league average on each axis; outward = better than the league (defence and ball care: fewer points / turnovers is better). Form: share of the last 10 won. The figures are each team's own, the better one bold.
