Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Three: Correct Score Group Bet 1-2 or 1-3 or 1-4 – 2.7

Portugal to Win 

There is a 70% probability for Portugal to win this game as they won seven of their previous ten fixtures across all competitions. On the other side, the form stats are showing South Korea to have a 40% chance of winning.

South Korea 0 Goal Handicap

In their last eight fixtures including the World Cup, South Korea covered the 0 goal handicap in seven of them. Portugal meanwhile lost to the suggested handicap three times in their nine games prior to this one.

Correct Score Group Bet 1-2 or 1-3 or 1-4

This is the favorite group bet correct score with the bookmakers. To justify, South Korea need to win to have a chance of qualifying, thus, they will attack and may score as well since they have 1.40 goals scored per game on average.

Preliminary Review and Match Prediction for South Korea vs Portugal

South Korea

After losing to Ghana in the second round, South Korea’s points tally remained at one, and are now in the third position on goal average in group H. As a result, the Tigers of Asia need to beat Portugal in their last game and wait for the Ghana vs Uruguay match result.

South Korea did everything right in their game with Ghana except where it mattered the most, in defense. Paulo Bento’s men gave away two goals after careless defending by his team but fought their way back and drew 2-2. Another defensive mispositioning led Ghana to score their winner. South Korea had 63% of ball possession and 20 scoring chances.

Portugal

Portugal secured their place in the following round with their second win in a row by beating Uruguay 2-0 on Monday. The Selecao will finish top of the group unless Ghana beat Uruguay by four goals and Portugal lose by three. Surely, that is highly unlikely and we think coach Santos will rest some of his top players.

It was a tough battle with Uruguay especially in the first half as Portugal had to cope with their opponent’s aggressive game. The Selecao have now scored two or more goals in their two World Cup games and with the attacking power they have up front, we expect more goals from Santos’s men.

South Korea vs Portugal Prediction

This will be an all-or-nothing match for the Koreans against a very strong Portugal side. South Korea beat Portugal when they co-hosted the WC in 2002. Paulo Bento will hope his current team can overcome his native national team but we think that is not bound to happen. We are backing Portugal for the win.

Safe Bet

With South Korea taking the initiative and going forward in search of a win, we see Portugal scoring a couple in this game. With odds of 1.76 at 1XBet, we predict Portugal to score over 1.5 goals
