South Korea vs Ivory Coast Preview
An interesting international friendly is on the cards when South Korea and Ivory Coast face off on Saturday. As the two teams seem to be evenly matched at the moment, we predict a 1-1 draw. A man to watch in the home team will be Son Heung-min, who has netted 54 goals in 140 caps, and his presence remains crucial for a side that has won 70% of its last ten matches. The Koreans enter this clash in strong form, averaging 2.60 goals per game while keeping 70% clean sheets, including 0% BTTS in their recent home outings. Their defensive stability, conceding just 0.80 goals per match, will again be key.
Ivory Coast, meanwhile, aim to bounce back following their Africa Cup of Nations quarter-final elimination to Egypt. Rising star Yvan Diomande is one to keep an eye on, alongside Amad Diallo and experienced midfielder Franck Kessie. The Elephants also come in with good momentum, earning 2.00 points per game, scoring 2.20 goals on average, and keeping 60% clean sheets overall. Their away matches remain more open, averaging 3.33 total goals.
As both sides average 2+ goals per match, Over 1.5 goals seems like a sure bet, alongside Both Teams to Score, and Draw (small stake).
