Suwon Bluewings form and stats

With 0 K-League 1 wins, 2 draws and 8 defeats from their home games, Suwon Bluewings are certainly not brimming with confidence. Suwon Bluewings are slowly digging their own grave here at Suwon World Cup Stadium with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in ten attempts.

Bluewings shared the glory with Daejeon Citizen in their last match, an away game that ended all square 2-2. Trouble was brewing at the score 0-2 against Daejeon Citizen last time out, but a goal from Mulić completed a comeback to a draw result for Suwon Bluewings. Mulić was able to secure the draw 2-2 in the game against Daejeon Citizen after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today?

Before that, Suwon Bluewings played out a draw 1-1 when visiting Daegu.
