South Africa v South Korea : World Cup match betting preview, prediction and odds

Thu 25th Jun, 02:00 BST, Estadio BBVA Bancomer, Guadalupe

South Africa and South Korea go head to head at the Estadio BBVA Bancomer on Thursday morning, with both Hugo Broos and Myung-Bo Hong hoping for success in the World Cup. For each and every World Cup fixture, KickOff explores the stats for multiple markets. Important stats, including head-to-head results, are then given alongside the best odds.

Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We're suggesting it's unlikely that this game will serve up 4+ goals, and the odds and statistics align with KickOff's predictive algorithm on this one. South Africa and South Korea have rarely served up goal-fests of late, whether that be in the World Cup individually or in their head-to-head duals. So, without a compelling favourite win or double chance market, we're suggesting under 3.5 goals. The UK's top bookies have that available at a best price of 1.25.

An away win looks like the most likely outcome in the win/draw/win market, with our predictive algorithm suggesting there’s a 59% chance of South Korea coming away with a win.
