Article: Red Kids

May 27 at 18:30, the Korean professional arena will usher in a heavy showdown. Daegu FC sits at home to face the powerful team Jeonbuk Hyundai. Both teams have unique positions in the league, and this encounter will surely bring a wonderful football feast to the fans.

1. The recent situation of both sides: The status difference is obvious

Dagu FC has been in a big state recently, and has only achieved a record of 2 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses in the past 6 league games. The last round away game lost to Daejeon citizens 1:2, and this loss highlighted the problems of the team's defense line. In terms of home court, Daegu FC has only won 2 games in its last 6 home courts, with a winning rate of only 33%, which is hard to say. However, when facing Jeonbuk Hyundai, Daegu FC is not without a chance. They have staged many good shows of defeating their opponents in their past home games, which also adds more uncertainty to this game.

In contrast, Jeonbuk Hyundai has been in a stable and outstanding state recently, and has remained unbeaten in the last 6 league games, with a record of 4 wins and 2 draws. The away performance is even more eye-catching, with 5 wins and 1 draw in the last 6 away games, and averaging only 0.33 goals per game, showing strong dominance on both ends of offense and defense. Although the last round draw with Jeju SK failed to score all three points, the game's possession rate of 62% is enough to prove the team's strong control in the midfield.

2. Tactical style: Each has its own characteristics of the showdown

Dagu FC focuses on the 5-4-1 defensive counterattack system. On the defensive end, the double midfielder Lee Myung-jae and Kwon Jing-won play a key interception role, and the high-speed return of the wingback effectively compensates for the insufficient defense line width. On the offensive end, the team relies on the back-to-body fulcrum ability of high-point center Lee Gonho to create opportunities for crossing and cutting in for winger Kim Dae-won. It is worth mentioning that about 25% of Daegu FC's goals come from set pieces, and set pieces tactics are an important scoring method for the team.

Jeonbuk Hyundai adopts a 4-3-3 ball control formation, focusing on ball control and wing penetration tactics. The midfield core Sun Junhao has an average pass success rate of up to 83%, and is a key figure in the team's offensive scheduling. Windback Park Joeyong and Gou John are undertaking a large number of assault tasks, and cooperate with forward Jun Jin-tao's ability to seize points, making the team extremely threatening on the offensive end. On the defensive end, the experienced Hong Zheng is in the middle and builds a relatively stable defense line. However, when the team faces a fast counterattack, the central defender's slow turn needs to be paid special attention to.

3. Historical confrontation: Jeonbuk Hyundai has the upper hand

Judging from the records of the last 10 matches between the two sides, Jeonbuk Hyundai has a clear advantage with 6 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. But Daegu FC also has its own highlight moments, with Daegu FC defeating Jeonbuk Hyundai 4:3 at home on October 6, 2024 and defeating his opponent 3:0 at home on June 22, 2024. However, in the latest confrontation on April 20, 2025, Jeonbuk Hyundai won 3:1 at home, showing her tactical restraint against Daegu FC again. Although the historical confrontation data are beneficial to Jeonbuk Hyundai, Daegu FC's upset performance at home also makes this game full of suspense.

4. Injury situation: Daegu FC core is absent

Daegu FC is currently facing the dilemma of the main striker Cesinia due to a rib injury, and midfielder Kim Min-joon is also unable to play due to knee surgery, which has caused a significant weakening of the team's offensive strength. The offensive responsibility fell more on the shoulders of Lee Gonho and Jung Jae-sun. As for Jeonbuk Hyundai, forward Sung Jin-young (injured in June 2024) has resumed training. The team currently has no new injuries, the main framework is complete, and the lineup has a certain advantage.

In this match between Daegu FC and Jeonbuk Hyundai, Jeonbuk Hyundai is better in strength, state and lineup integrity. But Daegu FC has a home advantage and has experienced defeating Jeonbuk Hyundai at home, so the counterattack efficiency should not be underestimated. Is it Jeonbuk Hyundai continued its good form and took away three-pointers away, or is it that Daegu FC beat his opponent in an upset with the help of home games?
