South Korea vs. Tunisia in Seoul, International Friendly, 28 May.
This will be South Korea’s last friendly at home before going on the road to continue the preparation for the World Cup. The asians are in mixed form right now, losing 5 and winning 5 in their last 10 matches. Also they did not have the best World Cup qualifying campaign, finishing 2nd in the group behind Iran and tied with Uzbekistan. On the bright side South Korea put in a very good performance in the last friendly vs. Greece, winning 2-0 away from home. The asians will have one of the youngest squads in the World Cup with only one players over 30 years of age and this might be a reason for their inconsistency.

South Korea will meet a team looking to rebuild. Tunisia failed to qualify for the World Cup and are now looking for the future, also with a new coach – this will be the first game at helm for belgian Georges Leekens. Tunisia’s form is also shaky – in the last 2 games they lost 1-4 to Cameroon but also held Columbia to a 1-1 draw in South America and actually played a very good game – they conceded possession but played amazing football on the break and had much more chances than Columbia.
This will be a tricky game for South Korea and I think the bookies should give more respect to Tunisia. The africans were very good in their only match in 2014 and if they repeat that counterattacking performance they can even win this game. For sure playing in Asia will be a tough task and South Korea is still the favorite, but the koreans can’t be trusted at odds like 1.60. Tunisia can get at least a draw here. My tip is Tunisia +0,5 handicap. Correct score prediction: South Korea – Tunisia 1-1.
Pick: Tunisia (+0,5 handicap)
