The K League 1 will be back in action this weekend, with Suwon FC taking on Daegu on Sunday.
Daegu are riding high in the division and sit pretty in sixth place in the table. They come into this game on the back of a 1-1 stalemate against defending champions Jeonbuk Motors Suwon on Wednesday.
The visitors sit two places and two points below Daegu. They come into this game on the back of a 3-0 win over the Suwon Bluewings in the much-hyped Suwon derby.

This remains a close game to call, with the two teams being separated by just a couple of points. Daegu did an excellent job of keeping Jeonbuk at bay in their last fixture. This game presents a great opportunity for Daegu to go out and seal all three points at home.

We expect a tight game, with Daegu edging the clash.
