South Korea take on the visitors Portugal in the round 3 match of group stage of FIFA World Cup 2022. The match will be played on Friday, December 2nd at Education City Stadium (Al Rayyan).
If the Portuguese team has already guaranteed itself access to the 1/8 finals of the World Cup in Qatar, then South Korea retains only minimal chances to continue the fight. In any case, the Koreans will play to win for the chances of the playoffs, and the wards of Fernando Santos for the first line in the group. The South Korean team survived at the 2022 World Cup in the first match against Uruguay, and in the second they had to beat Ghana. But what went wrong, and the South Koreans lost to the Ghana national team with a score of 2:3. This defeat will most likely deprive South Korea of the chances of reaching the 1/8 finals of the 2022 World Cup. The Koreans have nothing to lose. They need to play to win against Portugal, play open football. I would like to note the fact that, in principle, this is in the style of Paolo Bento's team. So, in the last seven matches out of 10, South Korea broke total over 2.5 goals.

The Portuguese need a win against South Korea in order to safely take first place in their group and avoid meeting Brazil in the 1/8 finals of the 2022 World Cup. Whoever comes out at the base, the Portuguese will play to win. Immediately in three of the last five matches in 2022, the Portuguese national team broke the bet on the total over 2.5 goals. This tournament has many intersections with the 2022 World Cup, which was also held in Asia. So, the only head-to-head meetings between Portugal and South Korea took place in 2002. Then the Koreans of Guus Hiddink won 1-0, and the match itself ended in a huge scandal, like almost all the games of the South Korean team in that tournament.
You can bet on the victory of South Korea for 5.15 with 4.46 for a draw and 1.65 for the victory of the Portuguese team. The Portuguese national team could not forget those grievances that they had with South Korea in 2002. In the upcoming match, the Portuguese will play to win, like their rivals. Therefore, it is worth waiting for a lot of goals.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
