Jeonbuk Motors vs Suwon Bluewings Prediction

This is an interesting fixture, with Jeonbuk undoubtedly enjoying the edge, courtesy of their history and recent form.

Suwon will have a lot of mental baggage to overcome if they are to progress further. They will have to negotiate Jeonbuk's high defensive line and offensive play, something that has been their vulnerability in recent games.

Jeonbuk will look to make a strong case for themselves as they look to complete a double. They should win this one.

Prediction: Jeonbuk 3-1 Suwon.
