Jeju United take on the visitors Daegu in the round 21 match of South Korea K League 1. The match will be played on Friday, June 7th at Jeju World Cup Stadium (Seogwipo).
Although Jeju United are slightly higher in the table than their opponent, they are only one point ahead. However, their recent results have been very disappointing. In their last five matches in the championship, Jeju United failed to secure a single victory. While they managed to secure draws against Daejeon Citizen (1-1) and Gwangju FC (2-2), they suffered defeats against Pohang Steelers (1-2), Jeonbuk Motors (0-2), and Ulsan (1-5). It wouldn't be surprising if Jeju United extends their winless streak in the league for another match. They have also dropped points in their last two home matches.

On the other hand, Daegu are no weaker than their opponent, and their goal is to secure a spot in the top six. Currently, they are in the eighth position in the table, but they have the same number of points as the team in sixth place. In this match, Daegu have a chance to at least secure a draw. Yes, they have lost their last two away matches, but those were against Ulsan, the league leaders, and Jeonbuk Motors, who are consistently strong at home. However, FC Seoul E-Land has earned points in three out of their last five league matches: victories against Seoul (1-0) and Suwon FC (3-1), and a draw against Suwon Bluewings (1-1).
Essentially, we can expect a match between evenly matched opponents, where there is no clear favorite. In this situation, it seems logical to cover two out of the three possible outcomes and place a bet on X2. The home advantage doesn't seem to help Jeju United significantly, as they have only achieved three wins in their nine home matches in the championship. On the other hand, FC Seoul E-Land has lost in less than half of their away matches (four out of ten) and only two out of their last five. Moreover, FC Seoul E-Land has not lost to Jeju United in their last ten meetings, including three victories and two draws. I believe that Daegu will secure at least one point in this match.
Prediction for the match: Daegu not to lose (X2).
