The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Gwangju are in the 8th position while the guesting Incheon United worry at 12th.
It's no vacation for neither Gwangju nor Incheon United as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Gwangju form and stats
1-1-1 (win-draw-lost) are the K-League 1 numbers at home for Gwangju so far this season.
Gwangju's last game was hosting Busan I'Park (placed 11th) and winning 3-1. In the preceding match a 1-0 victory visiting Suwon Bluewings.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Gwangju have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found six games) they have won four times, drawn two and lost zero.
There will be little rest for Gwangju after this match as they are travelling to Jeonbuk Motors for a K-League 1 game in only four days.
Gwangju has scored 4 league goals at home this season, in 3 matches. 4 goals have been conceded.
Incheon United form and stats
The K-League 1 season is young and Incheon United have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 2 defeats so far. With the Incheon United losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Incheon have lost on their last two travels.
Incheon are travelling again after losing away to Jeonbuk Motors in their previous match (0-1). A loss against Gangwon was the result prior to that, in a home game.
Incheon are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is two wins, three draws and five defeats. From a total of ten matches.
After this away game Incheon return home for a K-League 1 game against Busan I'Park. That game is only four sleeps after this.
Goals are few and far between in Incheon's away league games. Only 0 goals from 3 travels. It's not easy to score on Incheon United as they have only conceded 2 goals from these away games.
Head 2 Head
Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: two - six - two (Gwangju wins - draws - Incheon United wins). As for goals, one match ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), nine had two or less.Top Goalscorers
