South Korea also have seven points gained in three matches, beating China and Qatar, both 3-2, and drawing with Syria, 0-0. The team is on the second place only due to goal difference. South Korea lost only two of their last 30 matches, with five draws and 23 wins recorded. The team was close to winning the most recent Asian Cup, losing to Australia on penalties.
Both Iran and South Korea are favorites for the top two place in the group that guarantee participation in the World Cup 2018. Iran are more successful in matches with South Korea, avoiding defeats in head-to-heads with today’s visitors since 2005, eight matches in a row. We can expect a quite even battle between two solid teams when both of the opponents would want to avoid defeat in the first place.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals.
