South Korea vs Portugal 02.12.2022

South Korea’s opening game was a dull, 0-0 draw against Uruguay. This was followed by a 2-3 loss to Ghana after attempting a comeback and falling short. They now need to take 3 points against group favorites Portugal in this match to have any hopes of making it out of the group.

For Cristiano Ronaldo-led Portugal, qualification into the next round is already sealed. They have bagged 6 points in their opening 2 games, a 3-2 victory over Ghana in their opening match of this World Cup, followed by a 2-0 win over Uruguay. Victory here should be expected even if the coach rests some starters because the replacements are also very talented.

With Portugal’s array of attacking talent, their games promise goals just like it was in the opening matches. It is not easy for any team to shut them out. Thus, we feel that they are likely to score more than one goal in this match.
