South Korea head into this after a 3-2 loss to Ghana in their previous Group H match.
Cho scored both goals for the Asian side but it wasn’t enough as Kudus (2) and Salisu’s efforts were enough to inflict defeat.
Korea remains in 3rd place with 1 point from 2 matches and in dire need of a result in their final clash.
On the other hand, Portugal beat Uruguay 2-0 in their previous clash to ensure qualification to the Round of 16.

South Korea possible 11:
Kim, Kim, Kim, Kim, Kim, Jung, Hwang, Kwon, Jeong, Son and Cho
Portugal possible 11:
Costa, Cancelo, Silva, Pepe, Dalot, Nunes, Palhinha, Carvalho, Silva, A Silva and Leao
Prediction: South Korea 1-2 Portugal
We see Portugal doing enough to seal a 3rd win and stay top of the table.
Korea has lacked in the final third and could suffer as they have managed only 2 goals in the competition.
Their defence will be tested against an in-form Portuguese mid-field and we see the visitors’ experience ensuring the win.
Players to watch out for: Cho, Son, Leao and A Silva
