South Korea vs Ghana Prediction

South Korea and Ghana are playing each other in Group H. Portugal are the odds-on favorite to win the group. A win for either team would put them in a great position to take the runners-up spot.

South Korea play Ghana at Education City Stadium on Monday. The same ground saw South Korea draw 0-0 with Uruguay last Thursday. Ghana lost 3-2 to Portugal but they performed well. They showed guile and creativity with the ball and outrun and physically out-played the Portuguese. South Korean defense will be tested by Ghana's speed and directness.

Ghana will beat South Korea 2-0. The match result is over 0.5 shots on target and over 8 corners.

South Korea will play in the same 4-2-3-1 formation as they did against Uruguay. Ghana played 5- 3- 2 against Portugal. The midfield will be key for both teams. Thomas Partey and Mohammed Kudus will have to be on their best form to keep the defense organized and tight.

Both teams need to win after failing to do so in the opening week. Ghana were able to pressure a talented Portuguese defense last week and I can see them causing South Korea problems. I would lean toward backing the Under here.
