Team News

South Korea
Portugal
  • Hwang Hee-Chan has not played in any of South Korea's 2022 World Cup matches so far, owing to a hamstring injury and so remains a doubt for this game.
  • Danilo Pereira is likely to miss out here, as he did against Uruguay, owing to a rib injury which he sustained in a training session.
  • Nuno Mendes came off in that game with Uruguay because of some tightness he felt in his thigh and so will have to be assessed.
  • Otavio likely misses out here as well, as he continues to recover from a muscle injury.

Prediction

  • South Korea have only one point coming into the last set of group games, after losing to Ghana 3-2 in their last game after they had opened this tournament with a 0-0 draw against Uruguay. They must win their last game to go through, but everything relies on the other game too. If Ghana and Uruguay draw then they must win this game by two clear goals, if Uruguay win as well then it will come down to goal difference and if Ghana win, then they are out of the World Cup, no matter what.
  • Portugal have already qualified for the Round of 16 after winning their opening two games 3-2 and 2-0 respectively. They will guarantee their place at the top of this group by avoiding defeat in this game.
  • Portugal will want to wrap this group up with a perfect nine points, so expect them to win here.
