Will Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors FC's unbeaten streak continue?
Jeonbuk will face Suwon FC in the K League 1 Round 19 on the 17th at 7:30 p.m. at Jeonju World Cup Stadium.
The momentum of Jeonbuk, currently in the middle of the season, seems to be unstoppable by any team.
Jeonbuk achieved 3 consecutive wins along with an unbeaten streak of 14 matches in K League 1 with their recent victory against Gangwon. They demonstrate outstanding performance on both offense and defense, having scored 10 goals while conceding only one in the last 3 games, so Jeonbuk is confident of a victory in today's match.
Particularly, the performance of forward Thiago, who has perfectly filled the void left by the injured Compagno and revived his skills, is highly anticipated.
On the 6th, national team players, including Kim Jin-kyu, who scored the decisive goal in the Asian qualifiers against Iraq for the '2026 FIFA North and Central America World Cup', and Jeon Jin-woo, who recorded an attacking point in his A-match debut, will also return to Jeonju.
However, captain Park Jin-seop, who received a warning in the away match against Gangwon on the 13th, will not be able to participate in today's match due to accumulated cautions.
The Jeonbuk players will wear the '2025 camouflage special uniform' made for the June month of patriotism and remembrance during the match.
Through the uniform, Jeonbuk honors the noble sacrifices of UN member countries that participated in the Korean War and conveys the message of 'Zero Hunger, Zero War' for peace in collaboration with the World Food Programme (WFP).
Meanwhile, Song Min-gyu, who showcased an impressive ceremony in the last match against Ulsan, will be awarded the 'Ceremony of the Month' award for May before the kickoff of today’s match.
