Jeonbuk to justify favourites tag

Daegu FC have claimed 2 wins in their last 3 home K-League 1 clashes, but they will be underdogs when they face Jeonbuk on Tuesday as the visitors come into the clash as favourites. A quick glance at the Daegu FC vs Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors FC preview is enough to tell you why this is the case as Jeonbuk sit in second spot on 28 points from 14 games while Daegu are in a lowly 12th with only 11 points to their name. Jeonbuk, led by Gustavo Poyet since the end of 2024, have brought a new sense of flair and attacking intent to the club with their possession-based system, high pressing and width in the final third. Their style is perfectly suited to Jin-Woo Jeon, who is Jeonbuk's marksman with 7 goals in 13 games, including 3 in his last 5 appearances. He has been well-served by Jeonbuk’s creative midfielders and is well placed to punish Daegu on Tuesday based on our Daegu FC vs Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors FC prediction.

Daegu’s defense is well drilled but Jeonbuk can unlock it

Dong-Won Seo has helmed Daegu FC since mid-April 2025, instilling a pragmatic and compact structure, but it hasn’t really worked so far. Daegu’s defence is structured and led from the midfield by Seo’s defensive-minded players, but their inability to convert defensive solidity into points has left them floundering. Bruno Lamas is Daegu FC's chief attacking threat in K-League 1 2025 with 3 goals from 11 matches. The Brazilian usually pulls the strings from behind the striker, releasing his teammates for counters. Daegu have won three and lost four of their seven K-League 1 games at DGB Daegu Bank Park this season. The Daegu FC vs Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors FC betting tips suggest Jeonbuk have won five of their six K-League 1 away games in 2025 and will come into this match after a 3-2 victory at Daejeon Citizen and a 2-0 home shutout of FC Anyang. Jeonbuk have won their last three away games and we think they can make it four in a row against a team they beat 3-1 in their most recent head-to-head. This Daegu FC vs Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors FC prediction is based on Jeonbuk likely controlling possession, but Daegu's counter-attacks could hurt them if they overcommit. Both teams to score could be a savvy side bet with Daegu scoring 9 goals in 7 K-League 1 home games and Jeonbuk scoring 7 in 6 away trips. But we’re going with Jeonbuk to win because of their superior league position, form, and head-to-head momentum to take all three points.
