Korea vs Ghana World Cup 2022 – Match Preview

South Korea will play Ghana in the World Cup on Monday at Education City Stadium. The Koreans put on a strong performance in a goalless draw with Uruguay, keeping their third consecutive clean sheet in all competitions.

Tottenham forward Son Heung-Min will be a man to watch in the home team, as he is always a handful for the opposition backline. Paulo Bento is unlikely to alter the lineup that faced La Celeste.

The Black Stars, on the other hand, are looking to rebound from a 3-2 defeat to Portugal. Andre Ayew, the former Premier League ace, should be kept at bay by Korea’s defenders, as he is not getting any younger.

However, Ayew, Kudus, Seidu, and Inaki Williams are all one yellow card away from suspension. In any case, the Korean Republic’s performance in the draw with Uruguay was encouraging.

Korea Lineups, Form and Team News

Son Heung-Min had a face injury that could have kept him out of the tournament, but he played with a face mask against Uruguay and should be able to play here as well.

Korea Possible Lineups (4-3-3): Seung-Gyu; Jin-Su, Young-Gwon, Min-Jae, Moon-Hwan; Jae-Sung, In-Beom, Woo-Young; Heung-Min, Ui-Jo, Sang-Ho

Ghana Lineups, Form and Team News

Ghana had no injuries in their opening game against Portugal, so they have a full squad to choose from in this must-win game.

Ghana Possible Lineups (3-5-2): Ati-Zigi; Salisu, Djiku, Amartey; Baba, Samed, Kudus, Partey, Seidu; Williams, Ayew

Korea vs Ghana Stats and H2H

Taegeuk Warriors did well in the qualifier, finishing second in their group. They only lost one game and drew two others, for a goal differential of 13:3. However, now that they have reached the World Cup’s knockout stage, the competition is fiercer, and they will have to up their game significantly.

Ghana, on the other hand, finished first in their qualifying group. The real test came in the final stage of the qualifier, when they were pitted against Nigeria. The odds were heavily stacked against Nigeria, but the Black Stars advanced despite both games ending in draws, thanks to an away goal.

Both teams have played each other four times in international friendlies. Taegeuk Warriors lead the series 3-1.

Group H Overview and Standings

Group H looks to be one of the more balanced groups at the 2022 FIFA World Cup, and the first round of matches is already giving us a hint.

Uruguay, one of the favorites to advance, was held to a scoreless draw by South Korea. Despite hitting the crossbar in transition and coming close on a set-piece header from Diego Godin, Uruguay spent the majority of the game defending against an Asian side that couldn’t create enough meaningful scoring chances.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal defeated Ghana 3-2 in another evenly contested match at Stadium 974. The 37-year-old star forward opened the scoring by becoming the first player to score in five World Cup tournaments, but the Portuguese nearly blew a 3-1 lead in stoppage time, saved only by an Inaki Williams slip.

The next round of matches will feature a heavyweight clash between Portugal and Uruguay, while Ghana will be desperate to beat South Korea.

Korea vs Ghana Prediction

This is one of the tournament’s most difficult groups, and this game will be crucial for both teams.

South Korea will have a difficult time finding the back of the net, especially if Son is unavailable. Kwon Chang-hoon is the only other active player with double-digit goals, with 12 in 41 appearances. There will simply be insufficient pressure if the Tottenham forward does not make it.

Ghana’s attack has been underwhelming in its own right, but despite being underdogs the Black Stars will score when they need it most, as they did earlier this year in World Cup qualifiers.

But taking all the stats in to consideration and based on their history, we can expect a massive score line, and given that they are the underdogs in the group, we expect both teams to give their all and score goals.
