Jeonbuk FC – Statistics & current form

It wasn’t until ten years after the Korean league was founded that the franchise team was founded in Jeonju, a city of just under 600,000 people 230 kilometers from Seoul.

Jeonbuk FC – the great dominator in recent years

However, the first successes were long in coming and only in 2000 there was the first title win with the cup victory. The first championship was won in 2009. In recent years, the team has earned a reputation as the best club in South Korea.

In the last six seasons, the champion has been called Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors FC five times. With seven championships, the team, together with Seongnam FC, is the record holder in Asia’s oldest professional league.

Pure drama: title defense only fixed on the last match day

At least the title defense in the past year was by no means a sure-fire success. After the basic round (33 games) Jeonbuk was one point behind Ulsan Hyundai. It was only on the last round of the championship round that head coach Kang-hee Choi’s team overtook the league leaders with a 1-0 home win and a simultaneous, surprising 1-4 home loss by Ulsan Hyundai.

In 38 league games, the defending champion only suffered three losses and celebrated 22 wins and shared the points 13 times. With 72 goals and 32 goals conceded, the defending champion had both the best offensive and the best defensive in the league.

It was a title win that came off happily on the last matchday, but can definitely be described as deserved. An average of 2.74 hits per game were scored. Between Jeonbuk FC and Suwon Bluewings 2.00 odds are offered for over 2.5.

Well-known names cannot be found in the 33-man squad, there are only three legionaries in total. The older soccer insiders should know the 41-year-old captain Dong-Gook Lee. In 2001 he was on loan at Werder Bremen (seven games) under contract. Despite his advanced age, the top scorer in the K-League is still dangerous. In 2019 he scored nine goals this season.

In addition to the four championships, there are also five trophies in the cupboard.

The last title win was fixed on November 10 of last year. In the South Korean cup final, which was decided in the first and second leg, the big favorite from Suwon prevailed against Daejon KoRail with a total score of 4: 0.

The past cup season brought a number of surprises and so the team of head coach Im-saeng Lee not only had to compete against a third division team in the final, but also had a club from the plain as opponent in the final round with Hwaseong FC.

The 2019 league season was disappointing

The triumph in the cup competition created a mood of jubilation, but ultimately could not overlook a disappointing season.

After the team finished fourth in the basic round two times in a row, the championship round as eighth in the table with six points behind in sixth was clearly missed. The team suffered no less than 13 losses and had major problems especially in the game forward.

In the 33 games of the basic round, only 38 goals were scored, 23 of them abroad. In general, a prediction of over 2.5 was often successful in away games.
