Korea Republic Iran betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match is South Korea's victory. This match tends to be unbalanced, as South Korea plays in front of their fans and presents a team with more technical quality compared to their opponents. On the other hand, Iran is already qualified for the next world cup and in this match, they shouldn’t create great danger. So, we believe that a bet in favor of South Koreans in this match is of great value.

South Korea registers significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth special attention.

Analysis Korea Rep

The home team is currently in the 2nd position, with 13 points won, after 12 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses. In the penultimate round, they have won a home match against Syria by (1‑0). In the last round, they have lost an away match against Qatar by (3‑2). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses in away matches, with 21 goals scored and 13 conceded; against 12 wins and 3 draws at their stadium, with 36 goals scored and 7 conceded. South Korea registers 8 wins in the last 8 home matches for the WC Qualification Asia.

They have won the last 8 home matches for this competition. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 6 of the last 8 matches for this competition have ended with Over 2,5 goals.

South Korea national team comes unmotivated for this match after a 3-2 defeat against Qatar, with goals by Hee-Chan Hwang and Sung-Yeung Ki. In this home match, the coach Uli Stielike should draw his team in 4-2-3-1 privileging the ball possession and organized attacks, mainly, through the flanks. The great star of this South Korean team is the winger Heung-Min Son, very fast and competent player in the offensive transition. It seems that the South Korea team’s coach won’t count on Sung-Yong Ki due to injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Kim Seung-Gyu, Choi Chul-Soon, Kim Jin-Su, Kim Min-Jae, Kim Young-Gwon, Jang Hyun-Soo, Koo Ja-Cheol, Jae-Sung Lee, Chang-Hoon Kwon, Hee Chan Hwang, Heung-Min Son.
Coach: P. Gomes Bento.

Analysis Iran

In the last round, they have won a home match against Uzbekistan by (2‑0). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 10 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss in away matches, with 25 goals scored and 7 conceded; against 12 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss at their stadium, with 40 goals scored and 5 conceded. In the last 7 WC Qualification Asia away matches Iran has a record of 4 wins and 3 draws.

In this competition, they haven’t lost any of the last 8 away matches. Defensive consistency has been one of their best features, as they haven’t conceded any goals in the last 10 matches, and their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 4 of the last 8 matches for this competition have ended with Under 1,5 goals and 6 out of 8 have ended with Under 2,5 goals. This is a team that likes to score first. They have opened up the score in 13 of the last 16 matches for the WC Qualification Asia, they have reached half‑time in front in 9 of those 13 matches and have held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in 12 of them. In the last 10 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 8 of their 20 goals between minutes (46'‑60').

Carlos Queiroz's players comes for this match after a 2-0 home win against Uzbekistan, totaling their third straight win in this competition: the triumph goals were signed by Taremi and Azmoun. It’s worth noting that the Iranians have already secured access to the next world cup to be played in Russia. Because of this, the visiting coach must work with a more defensive strategy with a low middle block, exploring the space on the opponent's back. Sardar Azmoun is one of the most skillful players in Iran, and this player is very competent at finishing. For this match, the coach can count on all his players.

Confirmed Lineup: Alireza Beiranvand, Ramin Rezaeian, Milad Mohammadi, Mohammad Ansari, Morteza Pouraliganji, Ehsan Haji Safi, Saeid Ezatolahi, Vahid Amiri, Ashkan Dejagah, Alireza Jahanbakhsh, Reza Ghoochannejhad.
