The official internet sales site Bateman has released the dividends for the Hanwha-KIA game, which can be purchased until July 8 (Tue) at 6:30 p.m.
The Korea Sports Promotion Foundation (Chairman Ha Hyung-joo), which issues the sports betting ticket of the Sports Toto, has announced that the Korea Sports Leisure Co., Ltd., the entrusted operator, is approaching the sales deadline for the 79th round of the tournament betting targeting the Hanwha Eagles (home) - KIA Tigers (away) game to be held at Daejeon Hanwha Life Eagles Park on July 8 (Tue) at 6:30 p.m.
The 'baseball first half product' introduced by Sports Toto with the opening of the 2025 season is a game predicting the results of the first 5 innings of the baseball game, which has been continuously garnering significant interest from sports fans since its early launch, as it offers the fun of predicting the early flow of the game, unlike previous products where players had to wait until the 9th inning.
In this 79th round of the tournament betting, the games targeting the Hanwha-KIA match can be enjoyed in various types such as ▲General (Number 109) ▲Win1Lose (Number 110) ▲Handicap (Number 111) ▲UnderOver (Number 112) ▲SUM (Number 113) ▲Baseball first half product (Number 114).
In particular, the dividends for the baseball first half product targeting the Hanwha-KIA match in this 79th round of tournament betting are set at 1.70x (51.8%) for a Hanwha win, 5.90x (14.9%) for a draw between both teams, and 2.55x (34.5%) for a KIA win. Among these, the draw prediction is recorded at the highest dividend rate of 5.90x, making it an intriguing option for those anticipating a close early contest.
In the general game dividends, the win predictions for Hanwha and KIA are calculated at 1.50x (58.7%) and 2.13x (41.3%) respectively, indicating that Hanwha is favored to win.
Hanwha has confirmed its solo first place in the first half with a record of 49 wins, 33 losses, and 2 draws, marking the first time in 33 years since 1992. With a strong pitching lineup featuring Ryu Hyun-jin, Moon Dong-ju, and good hitting concentration, Hanwha has shown the best performance among the 10 teams in the first half, also achieving a record of 6 wins, 3 losses, and 1 draw in the last 10 games.
KIA is in 4th place in the league with a record of 45 wins, 37 losses, and 3 draws, trailing Hanwha by 4 games, but it was once in 2nd place due to a good momentum. KIA struggled early in the season due to injuries to players like Kim Do-young, Na Sung-bum, and Kim Sun-bin, but in June it recorded a winning percentage of 1st place (0.682), regaining its status as the defending champion. KIA has also maintained a strong upward trend, with a record of 6 wins, 3 losses, and 1 draw in the last 10 games.
Thus, the matchup between Hanwha, the strongest team in the first half of the KBO League, and KIA, which is on the rise, is highly likely to develop into a close early contest.
A representative of Korea Sports Leisure Co., Ltd. noted, "As the first half's biggest match between Hanwha and KIA unfolds before the KBO League All-Star Game, the high dividend of 5.90x for a first half draw will be an interesting option for those anticipating a fierce battle between the two teams with strong momentum."
