Jeonnam Dragons form and stats

2 wins, 2 draws and 0 losses. That’s the product of Jeonnam Dragons playing as the away team in the K League 2 this season. It could be a hat trick of victories away for Jeonnam Dragons, as they have won on their previous two travels.

The manager K. Jeon was unhappy after their last game, a K League 2 match played at their home ground Gwangyang Stadium. Jeonnam Dragons suffered a 0-1 loss to Anyang (placed 1st). Prior to that result Jeonnam Dragons won their away game at Busan I'Park. The scoreline was 1-0.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Jeonnam manager K. Jeon as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Gyeongnam.

The visiting Jeonnam have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 4 goals from 4 games. The Jeonnam defense is a tough nut to crack, having conceded less than half a goal per away game on average (2 goals in 4 games).

Head 2 Head

This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Jeonnam Dragons - Daejeon 1-2. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Daejeon Citizen won five games, one match ended with a draw and Jeonnam Dragons has four wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: six / four
