This season is a bit different. 7 consecutive wins are clearly divided into K-League 2, the bottom of the top ranks, according to coach Yoon Jung-hwan

Incheon and Jeonnam are set to play the 13th round of the 'Hana Bank K League 2 2025' at Incheon Football Stadium on the 25th.
In the last game of the K League 21 Robin (13 games per team), which was long, the two teams competing for the top spot will face off head-to-head. Leading Incheon is showing an overwhelming run with 31 points. Jeonnam is third behind E-Land (25 points), which has played one more game with 25 points, but is closely chasing the lead. If Incheon, which is already the first to reach the top of 10 wins (1 draw and 1 loss), wins, it can further widen the gap with the second-place competitors. He will win 11 games in Robin alone. On the other hand, if Jeonnam wins, the gap can be narrowed in an instant. If Jeonnam wins, the gap between Incheon and Jeonnam will be narrowed to only three points. The race for the lead can catch fire in an instant.
Both teams have overwhelming momentum. Incheon is on a hot rise with seven consecutive league wins. Since losing to Seongnam in March, it has been on an unbeaten streak of eight wins, one draw and nine league games. Starting with Mugosa (10 goals), the only double-digit scorer in the K League 2, a powerful offense composed of Gerso Barlow, a midfield led by Lee Myung-joo, and a well-organized defense team such as Park Kyung-sup, Kim Gun-hee, Lee Ju-yong and Kim Myung-soon show that they are solid first-rounders from their strength. With 14 goals and one run in the last five league games, the balance of offense and defense is close to perfect. South Jeolla Province is not lagging behind. It proves why he was selected as a candidate for the K League 2 along with Incheon, Suwon Samsung, and E-Land. It has lost only one game (7 wins and 4 draws) in 12 league games. The stable performance centered on ace Valdivia and freshman Alberti stands out. Honan's scoring ability from the front is also rising as the game continues.

Regarding the fact that he won most of the games in the first Robin this season, "Looking back, it's a shame against Seongnam." There were many situations, but I felt a lot after the match against Seongnam that we could win back-to-back games like this even though we overcame those situations. I think this result came out because the players are following better than I thought."
As for the opponent Jeonnam's power, "It is a team that is good at counterattack and has a very solid defense. We'll have a lot of time with the ball, but I think the key is how much counterattack we don't give."
In Jeonnam, ace Valdivia will miss the day due to injury. "Wouldn't it have been better if I had come and rested?" Yoon said on this point. "I don't know. No matter who is out, Jeonnam is a team that continues to bring good results. I think he made the team well."
As for maintaining a certain starting list, there is a one-week period, so the players have enough time to recover. If the players say they can't play, I'll think about it, but they're playing well. It's not a problem because we're taking the replacement properly. However, I don't know what to do when the weather gets hot. In the current situation, he said, "I don't think there is any reason to change it because it continues to win consecutively."
"No matter which team we meet, the way we solved the attack and the way we released the opponent's pressure are getting better so that we can be natural without talking about it. I think it will be difficult to catch our team if it gets smoother. There are some ups and downs. There are times when things don't go well for 15-20 minutes after the start of the game. I think it would be good to get rid of these ups and downs."
