Their recent form includes two wins, two draws, and one loss in their last five outings. They managed a solid victory against Jeju United FC, followed by another win against Jeonbuk Motors.

The team averages 1.6 goals scored and 1.2 conceded per game over the last five matches, which shows their attacking capability while highlighting some defensive vulnerabilities.
Daejeon Citizen
Daejeon Citizen sits just above Incheon in sixth place with 39 points after 29 matches. Their recent performances have seen a victory against FC Seoul, although prior to that, they faced three consecutive league losses. The latest meeting against Incheon saw Daejeon claim a resounding victory. In their recent games, Daejeon averages 0.8 goals scored and 1.0 conceded, indicating challenges in finding the net while also allowing goals.
Head-to-head
In their last five meetings, Daejeon Citizen has recently had the upper hand over Incheon United, winning three of the encounters. Daejeon emerged victorious in their last matchup this season with a score of 3-1. The previous face-offs also witnessed Daejeon win 2-1 and 2-0 against Incheon while the latter managed a win of their own 2-0 earlier. Typically, these matches have produced dynamic results with both teams finding scoring opportunities, as shown in their earlier bout ending in a dramatic 3-3 draw.
Key factors
One of the key elements in this match will be Daejeon's attacking efficiency compared to Incheon's struggles to maintain defensive solidity. Daejeon boasts a stronger scoring average, highlighting their ability to capitalize on chances. Incheon must leverage their home ground to control possession and create more attempts on goal while simultaneously tightening their defense to limit Daejeon’s threats.
Prediction
Significant factors influencing this match include the recent head-to-head results favoring Daejon Citizen and their improved striking output. While Incheon United could lean on their home crowd support, they have allied with inconsistency that opens the door for Daejeon to press their advantage. The betting market reflects this prospect by classifying Daejeon as the anticipated winners, alongside a respectable chance for both teams to find the net.
Overall, the match leans towards Daejeon Citizen winning this encounter, bolstered by their recent form and history against Incheon United.
