Jeonnam Dragons form and stats

2-6-3 (win-draw-lost) are the K League 2 numbers at home for Jeonnam Dragons so far this season. The home fans are hungry for more even though Jeonnam Dragons have been steadily collecting points here at Gwangyang Stadium through three straight draws.

No payout for Jeonnam in their previous match, an away game at Asan Mugunghwa that ended in defeat 0-4. Up until that fixture this team had gone six consecutive league matches without a loss. Jeonnam Dragons were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

In the match before that, Jeonnam Dragons hosted Gyeongnam and drew the game 1-1.

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 Jeonnam have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 7 games) they have won 2 times, drawn 3 and lost 2.

Take note that 8 of the most recent 10 league matches from this football club have seen goals scored by both teams.

Jeonnam Dragons are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 12 goals in 11 games. Jeonnam have conceded 13 in these home matches.

Prior to that result Gimpo won their away game at Busan I'Park. The scoreline was 3-0.

Gimpo are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 1 win, 0 draws and 4 defeats. From a total of 5 matches.

The travelling fans enjoy Gimpo's attacking play in away games, having scored 18 goals in 12 league matches away.
