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

Fri 12th Jun, 03:00 BST, Estadio AKRON, Zapopan

South Korea and their boss Myung-Bo Hong will be aiming to beat Miroslav Koubek and his Czech Republic side on Friday morning, as the pair meet at the Estadio AKRON in the World Cup. It's our aim to give you everything you need to make a smart bet on this encounter, so we've delved into our extensive database and pulled out the stats that matter the most. Head to head (H2H) and recent form is included, and it all goes into our algorithmic predictions. The best odds are there to make sure you get the best return.


Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

Our calculations suggest that it's unlikely that this match will deliver 4+ goals, and the odds and statistics point in the same direction as KO's predictive algorithm on this one. South Korea and Czech Rep have rarely served up a high volume of goals of late, whether that be in the World Cup individually or in their head-to-head duals. So, in the absence of a strong favourite draw or double chance market, we're suggesting under 3.5 goals. That's available at a best price of 1.22.
