Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors face unbeaten Johor Darul Ta'zim at Jeonju World Cup Stadium on 3 November. AFC lists the Champions League Elite fourth-round match at 19:00 UTC+9, equivalent to 17:00 Vietnam time.
The hosts have taken only one point from their last two matches. JDT arrive after successive victories, making the clubs' first meeting a test of contrasting recent momentum.
Hosts seek another step forward
Jeonbuk, twice winners of the AFC Champions League, opened by beating Kashiwa Reysol. They have not won since, and had to work for a draw against Beijing FC in the third round.
The opening victory plus one point from the following two games gives Jeonbuk four points. AFC describes the continental campaign as an opportunity after their domestic title reign ended, but the immediate task is to improve on the recent return.
Visitors build on their opening draw
JDT followed a goalless opening match against Buriram United with two wins. That sequence produces seven points, three more than Jeonbuk before kick-off.
AFC also notes JDT's three consecutive victories against South Korean clubs in the competition. Those results offer encouragement against opposition from the same country, although they are not a direct head-to-head record with Jeonbuk.
The match now brings Jeonbuk's continental experience together with JDT's unbeaten opening. At 17:00 Vietnam time on 3 November, the hosts seek a return to winning while the visitors aim to carry their sequence through a fourth round.
