South Korea vs Thailand Prediction and Match Preview

• South Korea has sealed two comfortable wins in their opening two World Cup qualifiers Group C outings.
• Thailand won and lost their opening two qualifier matches and was winless in four of the past five matches.
• South Korea has kept a clean sheet in both the qualifier fixtures they have played at the beginning of this season.

South Korea is having a good form across all competitions of late. Their only defeat in the past 14 was against Jordan in the Asian Cup semi-finals. They have won 10 of those 14 matches, which is worth enough noting. Moving on, the opening two qualifier group stage outings will help South Korea have the highest of spirits as they won 0-3 against China and 5-0 against Singapore. They are now at the top of the Group C standings, too.

Meanwhile, Thailand is having an unimpressive form across all competitions of late. They are on a three-match winless streak at the moment. The team has also won and lost one apiece of their opening two fixtures in the qualifiers. In fact, they won just twice in the past 10 matches across all competitions, and the teams they met on that stretch were Singapore and Kyrgystan. By the looks of things, we expect a pleasant day for the local supporters on Thursday.

Recent Meetings

• This will be marked as the eighth head-to-head meeting between South Korea and Thailand.
• South Korea has a 100% unbeaten record against Kazakhstan and has scored 19 goals in those eight games.
• South Korea has bagged a clean sheet in the past three clashes against Thailand in a row.

South Korea vs Thailand Prediction

The home form of South Korea is exceptional of late. They are on an eight-match unbeaten streak at home and won six in the stretch. Do also note that they have netted 22 goals in the past six home outings. South Korean forward Son has been consistent in his national games and has scored in both the qualifier outings at the beginning of this season. Since they have an offensive line led by the Tottenham forward Son and have scored at least 4 in two of the past three clashes against Thailand, we like to start with South Korea 4-0 as the main tip for this match.

The goal trend inclines us to suggest the over 3.5 goals tip as the second pick for this match. You can also back South Korea -2.5 Asian handicap considering all these above observations.
