LiontipsSouth Africa vs South Korea: betting tip (cf 1.77) and bets on the World Cup match
Command Analysis
Current form
The South African national team at the world Championship started with a 0-2 defeat against Mexico and there was no room for error in the match with the Czech Republic. The face-to-face meeting was a great chance to rehabilitate yourself and really qualify for the playoffs. Head coach Hugo Bros understood this perfectly well, but his players missed in the sixth minute. The Europeans dampened the pace of the game as much as possible after their goal, they did not attack themselves and did not allow the South Africans to do this. The yellow-greens got their chances, but most of the time trips to the goal ended in nothing, and all because they got tangled in their own legs and lost the ball. The only thing the national team managed to do was hit Schultz's hand at the very end and earn a penalty. It was realized by Teboho Mokoene — 1:1. A draw that leaves chances for the guys to get out of the group.
Disqualifications and injuries
The disqualified Mokoena and Zvane will miss the game.

South KoreaCurrent form
The Asian national team won a strong-willed 2-1 victory over the Czechs in the first round and went into the match with Mexico in high spirits. There was no favorite in the match. South Korea's attacks looked even more dangerous, but almost all of them ended in offside positions. The Koreans kept hoping that sooner or later the Mexican defense would make a mistake, but the opposite happened. In the 50th minute, the goalkeeper of the Asian tigers, Kim Seung-gyu, went to intercept a banal canopy, his defender was in his way, whom he crashed into and knocked the ball to the opponent. Nothing foreshadowed trouble, and Mexico took advantage of the gift — 1-0. According to the scenario of the game, the match should have ended in a goalless draw, but Hong Myung Bo's wards lost minimally due to the goalkeeper's gross mistake.
Disqualifications and injuries
Cho Yoo-min will miss the game due to injury.

Tip and bets
In Group A, three teams are competing for second place at once. South Korea is in a better position than South Africa and the Czech Republic, which have one point each. With three points in their asset, the Asian dragons can even afford a draw to advance to the next stage of the world championship, but they won't take any chances.
The main strength of Hong Myung Bo's team is the leaders in the attacking line. Song Heung-min, who has 56 goals for the national team, can decide the outcome of a match with one touch of the ball, and Lee Kang-in from the French PSG is able to give a jewel pass at any distance. The South Koreans make excellent use of free space, which makes them ideal for counterattacks. The defense, led by Kim Min Jae from Bayern Munich, is acting quite confidently and makes a minimum of mistakes - one goal has been conceded in the last four matches. It is unlikely that the South African national team will withstand such an onslaught today.
The betting tip is for South Korea to win with a coefficient of 1.67
Bet on the total
Koreans very often play with opponents on a low total, and in the last six games out of nine, no more than two goals have been scored. At the same time, the Africans do not shine with their game, they scored only two goals in the last four meetings and ended them with a grassroots result. We believe that South Korea will confidently play defense, while the Asian dragons themselves cannot break through the main total alone.
The betting tip is a total of less than 2.5 goals with a coefficient of 1.77
A bet on yellow cards
In our opinion, we should expect at least three yellow cards. Referees show an average of 1.6 yellow cards for the South African national team, and the referees have issued the same number of warnings to South Korea in the last five matches. We expect that there will be a lot of mustard plasters.
The betting tip is that the total number of yellow cards is more than 2.5 with a coefficient of 1.63
