Jeonbuk FC will look to break a string of consecutive stalemates when they return to the Jeonju World Cup Stadium to host Gimcheon Sangmu FC in Round 15 of the K League 1 this Sunday. The hosts are the heavy favourites to take maximum points, but a stubborn Gimcheon side has already taken points off them this year. We’ve analysed the underlying squad data to lock in our prediction.

The Green Warriors (3rd) enter this matchday sitting comfortably near the top of the table with 23 points, boasting a strong 6-5-3 record. While their recent away doubleheader yielded two straight draws, head coach Kim Do-heon’s side is a completely different beast on their own turf.

Having kept an impressive clean sheet in three of their last four home outings, Jeonbuk's defensive shape has been highly disciplined, conceding just 12 goals all season, the 3rd-fewest in the division. What’s more, the visitors, Gimcheon, are in a massive slump after losing back-to-back games for the first time since November.

Although Bulsajo drew their latest game 2-2 with Anyang FC, they lost the two prior in back-to-back home defeats to Incheon United (3-0) and Ulsan (2-1). In contrast, Jeonbuk FC have won their last two home games, four of their last five, and six of their last eight in this stadium.
