Jeonbuk Motors Hyundai vs FC Seoul Prediction: The Visitors Should Be The Last Standing Men

The Green Warriors of Jeonbuk Hyundai lock horns with the Cheetahs of Seoul ahead of Round 20. Bottom-barrel pessimism hangs around the hosts, who are determined to prove critics wrong by jumping off the relegation wagon. The visitors are on a three-game unbeaten run, with two wins and one stalemate. On the other hand, the hosts are expected to improve on their previously achieved tie and take the best of what the dya offers - other than a loss.

Jeonbuk Motors Hyundai (12th)

Recent Form: D-L-D-L-L

The Green Warriors struggle from the worst spot on the table and would expend all their efforts to return to better standings as they face one of the most unpredictable squads in the league. The players are desperate for a return to glory. Jeonbuk’s home form is problematic, with three stalemates and one loss in the last four games played at home. However, in the previous five league games, they have picked two meagre points, deemed a critical hurdle stone for the team. 

Taking reparative measures to the 3-0 defeat to Daegu, they held Pohang Steelers to ransom in the 1-1 aftermath here at the Jeonju World Cup Stadium. Tiago Orobo remains the best man tipped to make a difference, with his status as an intimidating target man being his most prominent feature.

FC Seoul (6th)

Recent Form: L-W-W-L-D

Seoul’s performance in the last five league runs has been particularly noteworthy - thus, compared with their opponent on paper, victory is passively expected. Two losses, two wins, and a stalemate registered in the last five games cast them in a better light as favourites to clinch victory. However, a milestone will be achieved here, as they have fared worse in direct meetings.

Away from home, Seoul has been outstanding, with three stalemates and one win in the last four games secured on the road. The 3-0 victory over Suwon produced a subsequent 2-0 point gain against the Kodiaks.

Seoul plays a very conservative game, and all players contribute to delivering success. However, the player to watch in this clash is Jae Mun Ryu, whose excellent reading of the game is expected to create a difference on Jeonbuk’s turf.
