Jeonbuk Motors form and stats
The story so far in the K-League 1 for Jeonbuk Motors at their home stadium (Jeonju World Cup Stadium) is 4 wins, 8 draws and 3 defeats. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.

At last, a league victory after four matches without. As mentioned above, Jeonbuk Motors "killed" Daegu in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency. Barrow (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 9.23/10. Barrow scored two goals, served one assist and hit one key pass.
In the match before that, Jeonbuk hosted Seoul and drew the game 0-0.Jeonbuk Motors are traveling soon after this match as the K-League 1 match at Suwon Bluewings awaits in four days.
The Jeonbuk Motors fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 16 in 15 matches. 16 goals have been conceded.
Seongnam form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Seongnam so far with only 11 points returning home. The records show 3-2-10 (win-draw-lose). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Seongnam's last three away games as they have all been lost.
Seongnam have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 224 minutes ago. Soon-Hyung was the goal scorer.
The manager Kyung-Ho was unhappy after their last game, played at their home ground Seongnam Tancheon Sports Complex. Seongnam suffered a 0-4 loss to Gangwon (placed 7th). Seongnam lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-4 beating and focus on this one. Ku, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 7.11. Ku hit two key passes.
Preceding that game, the 0-1 loss visiting Daegu's place.Take note that 9 of this team's 12 latest league games have ended with three goals or more.
After this away game Seongnam return home for a K-League 1 game against Pohang Steelers. That game is only four sleeps after this.
The attacking power of Seongnam when travelling is not overwhelming with 14 goals scored from 15 league matches away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Seongnam's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 26 goals from these trips.
