Sweden – South Korea World Cup Prediction 18 June 2018

Sweden – South Korea World Cup Prediction

Sweden and South Korea will meet on Monday, June 18 at 15:00 in a World Cup Group F match in Russia, including Germany and Mexico.

Sweden is for the 12th time in its history at a World Cup and has come here after removing Italy at the barrage (1-0, 0-0). Under the current selection, the Nordic have a very solid defensive play, with the midfielders ready to do their defense and generally score and receive few goals.

This year, Sweden played 5 games and 4 of them scored less than two goals: 0-0 with Peru, 0-0 with Denmark, 0-1 with Romania, 1-2 with Chile and 1 with Chile -0 with Denmark (in the second friendly in 2018 with this representative). Only in one of these matches was scored in the first half hour.

South Korea is at its 10th World Cup in its history, a true record for an Asian selection. Since 1986, South Korea has not missed anywhere in the world. However, in the last 9 games in the CM, the Asians have only one victory.

Selector Shin Tae-Yong is his first career experience at a World Championship. He is only on the third official match on the Asian bench, the previous two being the last of the preliminaries. Both ended 0-0, with Iran and Uzbekistan.

Sweden – South Korea Prediction

It will be the debut of both selected at the Russian World Cup. I expect a cautious start of the game and I bet you will not score in the first 28 minutes.
