Gyeongnam form and stats

A K League 2 draw at home so far for Gyeongnam. Last season their home statistics were 0 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat from 3 matches. With seven home K League 2 games in a row without a win, the Gyeongnam fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Suwon Bluewings game long ago, can be stopped today.

Gyeongnam faced defeat in their previous match, away at Suwon (1-3). In the preceding match a 3-2 victory visiting Anyang.

Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at Baek Sung-Dong for missing a penalty kick versus Suwon in the 56th minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Gyeongnam at home in the league. 0 on target and 0 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
