Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors (home)
- Jeonbuk have won two of their last three K-League 1 home games in 2026, conceding an average of 1.33 goals per home match.
- Jeonbuk boss Jeong-Yong Jung has stuck to his guns with possession-based tactics, structure and youth development since taking the job in December 2025.
- Jung’s tweaks to the Jeonbuk system seem to have brought stability and control to the matchup tempo which makes them a difficult side to break down.
Incheon United (away)
- Incheon United have won one, drawn one and lost one of their three K-League 1 away games in 2026, also conceding an average of 1.33 goals per away match.
- Incheon boss Jong-Hwan Yoon has brought a completely different brand of football to Incheon, where the ball is moved very quickly and players press all over the field to try and win it back.
- His team’s energy and verticality has helped them adjust to playing in the top-flight again after promotion.
Key Players
- Dong-Jun Lee
- 3 goals in 8 K-League 1 matches isn’t a lot for star attacker Dong-Jun Lee, but he is a reliable outlet for his side when they need to find a goal.
- Stefan Mugosa
- So it’s no surprise that the talented Serbian striker Stefan Mugosa has been their talisman with 7 goals in 7 K-League 1 games and 6 goals in his last 5, giving them a constant threat in transition.
