Brazil vs South Korea Prediction
Everyone loves an underdog story in the World Cup, with the magic of the cup being that teams can knock out the hot favourites with a moment of magic. Sadly, this isn’t likely to be the case in this match. Brazil have a lot of talent and plenty of depth in all of their strongest positions, so expect to see them take a firm grasp on the match and not let go. One potentially interesting area is at wing-back, where South Korea have Son Heung-Min attacking ageing Brazilian defenders. If there’s going to be an upset, it’ll come from him. Ultimately, Brazil should win comfortably.
