South Korea vs Iran 24.03.2022

Second meets first in Group A of the Asian World Cup Qualifying when South Korea host Iran. Both sides have a comfortable advantage over the third-placed United Arab Emirates, with their meeting likely to decide who qualifies for Qatar 2022 as group winners.

Without doubt this clash is the heavyweight bout in Group A, considering that both teams are on a great unbeaten form. But this duel will likely end with fewer goals as both teams have seen in their last 13 meetings.

As a result, we fancy this match to feature less than 3 total match goals.

Main tip: Under 2.5 Goals (go to tip details)
