Daegu will welcome Jeonbuk Motors to DGB Daegu Bank Park for a K1 League round 18 fixture on Saturday. The hosts will be looking to build on the 1-0 victory they registered against Jeju at the same venue last time out.
Victor Bobsin's strike midway through the first half proved to be the difference between the two sides.
Jeonbuk, meanwhile, fell to a shock 1-0 defeat away to Gimpo FC in the Korean Cup round of 16. Bruno Pariba broke the deadlock in the fifth minute and this helped the K2 League outfit book a quarterfinal date with Jeju.
Motors will turn their attention back to the league, where their last game saw them share the spoils in a 2-2 draw at home to Incheon.
The draw left the Jeonju outfit in 11th spot, having garnered 15 points from 17 games. Daegu are 10th with 17 points to show for their efforts in as many games.

Daegu ended a three-game losing streak with their victory over Jeju. Their games have tended to be close and another keenly-contested game could be on the cards.
Jeonbuk have had a season to forget so far. This was highlighted by the fact that their Korean Cup run ended prematurely at the hands of a second division outfit.
Although one side could nick a win here, we are backing the spoils to be shared in a high-scoring stalemate.
