Jeonbuk unveiled its starters ahead of the final match of the 38th round of the 'Hana Bank K League 1 2024' against Gwangju at 2 p.m. on the 24th at Gwangju Football Stadium.
Jeonbuk coach Kim Doo-hyun set up a second line of attack with Moon Sun-min, Lee Young-jae and Andrigo, with tall striker Park Jae-yong as the top. Korea Young Kim Jin-kyu will take over the midfield, while Kim Tae-hwan, Park Jin-seop, Yeon Je-woon, Kim Tae-hyun will set up a four-back. Kim Jun-hong wears goalkeeper gloves.
Lee Seung-woo and Kwon Chang-hoon will prepare for the substitution along with Gong Si-hyun, Hong Jung-ho, Kim Ha-joon, Ahn Hyun-bum, Boateng, and Jeon Jin-woo, Tiago.
Jeonbuk currently has 41 points in 37 games, ranking 10th, beating 11th-place Daegu (40 points) by one point.
Jeonbuk, which has already escaped from the direct relegation (12th place) through the last round, will play a promotion playoff against the winner of the K League 2 playoff E-Land-Jeonnam match if it maintains its 10th place on the day. E-Land and Jeonnam match will be held at Mokdong Stadium at 4:30 p.m. on the same day.
As a result of the day, if the final ranking is 11th, it will face Asan, South Chungcheong Province, which is second in the K League 2. Jeonbuk's promotion PO match will be held at home and away on Dec. 1 and 8.
Regardless of the result of the final match, Jeonbuk has already recorded the lowest ranking since the introduction of the split round. Jeonbuk's most recent double-digit ranking was in the 2006 season, the early days of the appointment of current Shandong coach Choi Kang-hee, ranking 11th at the time. Since the 2009 season, he has won eight championships without falling below third place.
Jeonbuk ended its five-game winless run and succeeded in rebounding by winning two consecutive games, including the Cup.

Right back Doo Hyun-suk, who suffered a long-term injury, returned to the ground for the first time in about 100 days since the match against Ulsan on July 10.
Noh Hee-dong, Kim Kyung-jae, Cho Sung-kwon, Lee Min-ki, Lee Kang-hyun, Shin Chang-moo, Ha Seung-woon, Lee Hee-kyun, and Heo Yul set up a replacement list. All foreign players were excluded, perhaps in preparation for the Asian Champions League elite game next week.
Gwangju can rank as high as 7th and as low as 9th depending on the results of the day. It is three points ahead of seventh-place Jeju (49 points), but it is four goals ahead in multiple points. It is a one-point difference from Daejeon (45 points), which is ranked 9th, and the score is tied for multiple points.
