Jeonbuk Motors form and stats

Jeonbuk Motors have collected 19 points from their K-League 1 home games so far after 6-1-3. Jeonbuk has won so many consecutive home games (four in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Jeonju World Cup Stadium. We remember; it was Gangwon.

A nice win for Jeonbuk Motors last time playing, versus Jeju United. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-0 with Moon scoring for the victors.

Before that result, a home victory against Gwangju in the FA Cup. 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 Jeonbuk Motors have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 16 games) they have won 8 times, drawn 5 and lost 3.

The manager Petrescu will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Daejeon Citizen in only four days.

Jeonbuk Motors have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Jeonju World Cup Stadium with 15 goals in 10 league matches. Jeonbuk have only conceded 7 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 0 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.
