Preview
South Korea eye a winning return after a 5-1 thumping at home against Brazil, which affected their preparation.
Neymar scored twice for the visitors while Richarlison, Jesus and Coutinho added to the scoresheet. Hwang’s first half effort proved to be a mere consolation at the end of 90 minutes.
Korea has two more friendlies (Paraguay and Egypt) before their main WC event begins. Hence, these are their last 3 chances to get their combinations up and running.
On the other hand, Chile finished their WCQ campaign on a losing note with a 2-0 defeat to Uruguay at home; leaving them in 7th place.

Suarez and Valverde scored for the visitors in that one to ensure Uruguay’s progress to the World Cup.
Chile has lost 3 of their last 5 matchers across competitions and do not look a formidable unit it once was. Lack of confidence and no World Cup has surely dented them.
But this is a chance to prepare for the next main event being the Kirin Cup next week.
Both sides last met in a friendly in 2018 which ended goalless.

De Paul, Kuscevic, Medel, Maripan, Ibacache, Osorio, Parra, Alarcon, Diaz, Meneses and Montecinos
Prediction: South Korea 2-0 Chile
Chile is missing a number of key players and also lack confidence due to results. This should help Korea prevail in the contest as they eye a winning return.
Korea is more suited to home conditions and is expected to make this opportunity count.
