The women's national teams of Montenegro and South Korea will meet in one of the matches of the 4th round of the group stage of the OI-2020. Who will win the second victory?
Montenegro (w)
Montenegro started the group stage with a victory over Angola (33-22), and in the next two matches remained without points, losing alternately to Japan (26-29) and Norway (23-35). Before the penultimate round, Montenegro has two points and is located in the fifth position, outside the playoff zone, but the disaster has not happened yet, because the same two points are on the account of two more national teams-Japan and South Korea.
South Korea (w)
Only in the third round, South Korea was able to get away from the initial number of points and score the first two - Japan was outplayed with a score of 27:24. South Korea is saved by the fact that it is on the list of three teams that have 2 points, so the chances of the playoffs are preserved, and very high, and third place is very possible. The success in the last match was important from the point of view of psychology, because before that South Korea lost in five matches in a row.
Statistics and figures:
- Montenegro (w) won one of the previous five matches;
- South Korea (w) has won in one game out of the last seven;
- Montenegro (w) is the favorite of the confrontation.
Forecast
Montenegro is the favorite, but not by a large margin. In general, the teams are equal, so I suggest that we get away from betting on one of the teams and put more than 53.5 on the total. Each side needs a victory, so no one will dry the game, and after a missed goal, the handball players will do everything to distinguish themselves in response.
