Jeonbuk Motors form and stats

Jeonbuk Motors's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Jeonbuk Motors, who have the most scored goals (28) in K-League 1, collect 12 points from their 6 away matches in the K-League 1. 3 victories and 3 draws have created these points (and only 0 defeats). Visiting Jeonbuk has seen their last two away games both end with a tied score and one point each.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a K-League 1 home defeat versus Ulsan with 2-4 on the scoreboard. Midfield player Kyo-won Han was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.95/10. Han scored two goals, hit one key pass and had 26 successful passes (of 31 total). As you can tell from the result, the match against Ulsan was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?

A loss against Suwon Bluewings was the result prior to that, in a home game.
