Incheon United form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their K-League 1 travels is 6 wins, 7 draws and 4 defeats.

Incheon United have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 270 minutes ago. Min-Seog was the goal scorer.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Sangju Sangmu wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.
