In the match of the first round of Group H, the national teams of Uruguay and South Korea will meet.
Uruguay
Uruguay has both watchmen (Edinson Cavani, Luis Suarez and Diego Godin) and young stars (Federico Valverde, Darwin Nunez) in the squad. The main loss can be considered Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo, who is announced for the tournament, but will definitely not take part in the group stage. This factor can once again have a bad effect on the game in defense, for example, in the qualifying stage for 18 games, the South American team conceded 22 goals, the same Brazil has 5 of them.
South Korea
South Korea took second place in the group in the qualifying stage. The main star of the Asian team can be considered Son Hyunmin from Tottenham, although the player missed the last three matches for Spurs due to a fractured eye socket.
Statistics and figures
- Uruguay is the favorite of the match;
- Uruguay has suffered one defeat in the last nine matches;
- The teams met eight times among themselves, only in the last game (2018) South Korea broke a series of seven defeats and won.
Forecast
I believe that Uruguay will start its way at the World Cup with a victory.
