Jeonbuk Motors Hyundai vs Pohang Steelers Prediction: Relegation Concerns For Jeonbuk Hyundai

Third-place holders of the K League, Pohang Steelers, charge into pitch defiance against Joenbuk Motors, hoping to stomp the shattered morale of the visitors while actively contesting the top spot. Relegation rumors surround the visitors, who have not tasted victory in the last five league games. The odds indicate that nothing can be done for Jeonbuk except Lady Luck, who has been absent from the team for six weeks.

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

The Green Warriors of Jeonuk Motors are shy of victory in the last five league encounters, taking only two points. However, there is little hope for a chance to maintain strength as they ply a path to success in these rough lands. Last week's 3-0 loss to Daegu Sky Blues was a disaster, and without a victory on their home turf this month, the skill of Tiago Orobo is required as a refuge from the impeding carnage expected from the Steelers.

League Form: W-D-L-W-D

Pohang’s decency in the last five league games must be applauded, with two wins, two stalemates, and a loss against pitched opponents. Despite previous struggles, a 60% form on foreign turf indicates a greater likelihood of headway against Joenbuk.

Last week against Incheon United, Pohang flaunted two strikers, Ho Jung Yeo and Lee Ho Jae, in the 4-4-2 assault who registered goals. Hence, there is little surprise that striker Lee Ho Jae is tipped as a player to beam the spotlight on, with hopes that the momentum from his brace last week earns him some nettings before full-time.
