Pohang will be looking to slow down league leaders Jeonbuk when the two sides clash in the Korean League this Saturday. Heading into this match, Pohang are fourth, 13 points behind league leaders Jeonbuk. We have a prediction for the match below.
Pohang are smarting from a 4-1 defeat at Seoul, their second defeat in the last four league matches. They’ve, however, managed five wins in the last 10 league outings and will want to improve on their defence.
Both teams scored in six of their last 10 league matches. Meanwhile, in the last 10 league games at home, Pohang managed just three clean sheets.
Jeonbuk haven't really excelled in this fixture in recent meetings; they won twice in the last 10. As they arrive for the clash, though, they are on a solid run, unbeaten in 17 league matches, with 12 wins therein.
They last lost a league game in March. In their last meeting with Pohang, the two sides drew 2-2. Gustavo Poyet’s side is coming from a 1-0 win over Seoul in the Korean Cup quarter-finals.
That was an extension of their good run, after earlier beating Gimcheon Sangmu in their latest league match. Jeonbuk, however, have work to do, having only managed one clean sheet in five league matches. Eight away wins in nine league outings also serve to keep confidence levels high.

Our Pohang Steelers vs Jeonbuk FC Prediction
Pohang, playing at home and with a rather impressive run in this fixture, will feel they can shock the league leaders here. Well, we can’t rule out a goal or two from them, as they’ve been doing well on that front.
However, they haven't shown the levels of consistency needed to stop the current Jeonbuk side. The visitors are coming off a 17-match unbeaten run in the league, winning 12. They do have one clean sheet in their last five league games, though. In our prediction for Pohang v Jeonbuk, we’ll back Jeonbuk to win and both teams to score.
