Bookmaker Ratings Prediction One: Over 1.5 Goals – 1.42
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Two: W1 / Team 2 To Score – 4.54
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Three: Correct Score 2-1 – 8.5
Over 1.5 Goals
A very possible total number of goals options will be the Over 1.5 Goal with Uruguay and South Korea failing to repeat the option just once in their last 6 meetings.
W1 / Team 2 To Score
With odds in favor of Uruguay, the Americans are expected to as well concede while winning the game as their defense line appears not too strong for the Koreans to break.
Correct Score 2-1
Correct score pick will be the 2-1 option following a tricky head to head statistics that has seen Uruguay end their last two home games against South Korea with a 2-1 victory [one of these games was a World Cup match back in 2010]. South Korea won 2-1 they last time they met Uruguay in a friendly match.
Uruguay
Uruguay step well into the competition following their 2-0 friendly game win against Canada on 27th September 2022. The Southerners are yet to play any game this month, November.
South Korea
The Asians beat Iceland 1-0 in a friendly tie ahead of their world cup game against Uruguay and will be looking to extend their 3 games unbeaten run when they face off on the 24th of November.
Both teams will most likely score but that isn’t expected to hinder Uruguay from winning the match.
Safe Bet
A very safe bet will be picking South Korea to score Under 2 Goals considering the fact that they have only scored maximum of 2 goals per game in the last 4.
Ronald Araujo remains Uruguay’s only injury worry with the Barcelona man yet to make a return since his late September injury. However, Araujo is included in the squad but unlikely to start.
Kim Jin-Su and star man Heung-min Son are doubts for the match on Thursday with the former suffering a hamstring injury early November while Son suffered a facial injury against Marseille with his club side, Tottenham Hotspur. Should Son be risked then he could appear in a protective mask.
Uruguay: Rochet; Varela, Godin, Gimenez, Olivera; Bentancur, Valverde, Vecino; Pellistri, Suarez, Nunez.
South Korea: Kim Seung-gyu; Yoon Jong-gyu, Kim Min-jae, Kim Young-gwon, Kim Jin-su; Jung Woo-young, Hwang In-beom, Kwon.
