Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One — Ghana yellow cards: Over 1.5 — 1.70
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two — Corners first half result: South Korea — 2.13
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Three — 2nd half total goals: Over 1.5 — 2.45
The odds are backing Ghana to get on the referee’s book on at least two occasions. The Black stars were shown the yellow card on four different occasions against Portugal.
Although all of South Korea’s three corner kicks against Uruguay came in the second half, we expect the Asian side to head into the break with the most corners against Ghana. The Black Stars only started pressuring Portugal in the second half and South Korea will only try to keep Ghana at bay in the first half at least.
In Ghana’s last two games, at least two goals were scored in the second half. Five goals were recorded in the second half between Ghana and Portugal and we somewhat expect both South Korea and Ghana to produce at least two goals after the interval.
Otto Addo’s Ghana got off to a losing start in the Qatar World Cup after succumbing to a tight 3-2 defeat to Portugal, although the game had some controversial decisions.
Ghana will look to avoid the same mistake against South Korea in a bid to keep their chances of qualifying for the knockout round alive, although they head into the game as the underdogs.
and Uruguay played a drab goalless draw on Thursday. The game only had one shot on target despite the likes of Luis Suarez, Darwin Nunez, Federick Valverde, Edinson Cavani, and Heung-Min Son featuring in the game.
The Asian side will look to get all three points against Ghana as they fancy going through to the next round, plus they head into the game as the favourites.
Although South Korea are the favourites to get the win against Ghana, there are chances that the game could end in a score draw. Ghana were close to drawing Portugal and many would agree the result could have been different if there wasn’t any controversy in the game.
Back South Korea to win or draw, although anything other than this wouldn’t come as a shock, given the performance Ghana put out against Portugal.
