South Korea hosts Iran in round 9 of the third stage of the World Cup qualification. The match will be played on Thursday, March 24th at Seoul World Cup Stadium (Seoul)
South Korea is the most successful representative of the Asian region in terms of football. At least in terms of performances at the World Cups. This national team has a long streak of promotions to such tournaments (there have already been ten such successes in history). And most importantly, the Tigers managed to qualify for the semifinals of the home tournament in 2002. No one else from Asia could do that. It is already clear that Paulo Bento’s men will go to Qatar. In the current qualification, they tied against Iraq and Iran and gained six victories.

Since 1998, the national team of Iran has missed only two World Cups. Another thing is that the Iranians have never managed to qualify from the group. In 2018, the team looked quite good in Russia but simply lacked luck. Now it has an excellent roster, which showed perfect results in the qualifiers. Iran gained seven victories and lost points only in the home match against South Korea (1-1). Of course, the Tigers will try to take revenge in Seoul. And Dragan Scocic has certain problems with the squad. First of all, not everything is going well for Sardar Azmoun at Bayer, as he is just getting used to the new club. And there are enough injured players and those who have caught the coronavirus. Therefore, the head coach will have to beat his brains.
It's incredible, but this century South Korea has beaten the Iranians only at the level of friendly matches, and the last victory was gained in 2005. The last three head-to-head matches ended in draws, including 1-1 in October last year. As you understand, Iran could not beat its main competitor even at home. Now it seems that the Koreans have a great chance to finally achieve victory, and we believe that they will take it.
Prediction for the match: South Korea to win
