The national teams of South Korea and Colombia will meet in a friendly match. How will the upcoming duel end? We'll figure it out.
South Korea
South Korea at the last December World Cup in Qatar was able to get out of the group, where the national teams of Uruguay, Ghana and Portugal also played, taking second place with four points in the asset, and in the first round of the playoffs with a crushing score of 1:4 lost to Brazil. The Asian national team is showing itself well in friendly games, having suffered the last defeat on June 2 last year (six games have been played since then).
Colombia
Colombia did not compete at the World Cup in Qatar, having failed the qualifying stage of CONMEBOL, taking sixth place in the table of ten teams, so it made a habit of holding friendly matches with the national teams that performed at the main start of the quadrennial and showed pretty decent results. CSKA Moscow midfielder Jorge Carrascal was called up to the national team, who does not get into the main squad of the capital club after the resumption of the season.
Statistics and figures
- Colombia is the favorite of the match according to bookmakers;
- Colombia has not lost for seven games, having won six;
- South Korea withdrew from the group at the World Cup, where it lost to Brazil in the 1/8 finals;
- South Korea has not lost for six friendly games;
- Colombia has not lost on the road for three games;
- The teams last met in 2019: South Korea won 2-1
Forecast
I think that the guests should succeed in the match, because they need to gradually get in shape and approach the CONMEBOL championship in good condition, as well as avoid mistakes of the last selection for the 2026 World Cup. I propose to place two bets on the upcoming match: Colombia wins with a head start (0) and Colombia will score in the second half.
