Featured Game| Korea Republic vs. Morocco

Why you should back South Korea

The South Koreans have a proven goal scorer in Ji So-yun. The 32-year-old midfielder has scored 66 career goals with the national team, the most by any South Korean player, male or female. She also is tied with teammate Cho So-hyun for the most caps by a Korean player with 145. 

In addition, South Korea face a Morocco team that has been listless in attack for much of the year. In their last four games, a stretch that began in April, the Atlas Lionesses have failed to score a goal. They lost two of those matches and drew two others. See which team to pick here.

Why you should back Morocco

Ghizlane Chebbak is a capable goal scorer for the Atlas Lionesses. The 32-year-old, who plays for ASFAR in Morocco, has 21 goals in 60 appearances for the national team. In last year's Africa Women's Cup of Nations, she was the co-leading scorer and was named player of the tournament.

In addition, Rosella Ayane also can be dangerous in attack. The 27-year-old striker, who plays for Tottenham in the Women's Super League, has nine goals in 20 appearances for Morocco. In last year's Cup of Nations final, she scored the team's only goal in a 2-1 loss to South Africa. See which team to pick here.
