Head-to-head statistics Jeju - Sangju

Jeju Team Overview
Cheju's last match was on in the South Korean Cup, where they lost to Anyang (1-2).
Match stats (Cheju vs Anyang):
- Possession: 54% vs 46%;
- Corners: 5 vs 1;
- Fouls: 8 vs 13;
- Yellow cards: 1 vs 0;
- Shots on target: 2 vs 7.
Cheju's involvement in the Korean FA Cup ended last week almost before it had begun. The focus now shifts entirely to securing a top-six finish. They sit fourth, just four points clear of the teams outside the championship zone, so even a draw would strengthen their position.
In their last five matches they have won three, drawn one and lost one. Their home scoring rate this season is modest - 1.17 goals per game - and they concede just over one per match. That consistency has kept them in the upper half of the table, but the pressure from rivals means they need to be solid defensively and clinical when chances arrive.
Match Results: Jeju

Sangju Team Overview
Sanju's most recent competitive match also ended in defeat - a 1-2 loss away to Gimpo in the South Korean Cup.
The match statistics were as follows (Sanju vs Gimpo):
- Possession: 55% vs 45%;
- Corners: 4 vs 3;
- Fouls: 7 vs 15;
- Yellow cards: 2 vs 0;
- Shots on target: 2 vs 6.
Sanju are only six points off the top six, so they are unlikely to take unnecessary risks away from home and will probably settle for a cautious approach. A point against a top-four side is a decent return; dropping all three would almost certainly end any realistic hope of a medal challenge.
Their football has been pragmatic throughout the season: four wins and 13 draws underline a results-first mentality. They are averaging just 1.1 goals scored and 1.1 conceded per match.

⭐ Editor's Pick
Sanju's scoring record points clearly to low-scoring matches: no more than two goals were scored in 8 of their last 9 K League fixtures. Jeju, meanwhile, will likely look to hold on for at least a draw given the pressure of their hosts' strong league position. That should produce a tight, cautious contest with few clear-cut chances. The editor's pick is based on exactly these expectations: Total Goals - Under 2.5.
