Daejeon Citizen form and stats

Daejeon Citizen have only collected 14 points from their away games in the K-League 1, after 3-5-6 (14 played). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Daejeon's last three away games as they have all been lost.

Daejeon Citizen lost away at Pohang Steelers (3-4) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. As you can tell from the result, the match against Pohang Steelers was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today? Mixed emotions for Daejeon Citizen's Orobó who got on the scoresheet three times against Pohang Steelers, but still walked off the pitch defeated.

A home win before that, celebrating 4-3 vs Seoul.

Daejeon has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 22 goals from 14 games.
