In the four previous matches in the current qualifying round, the home team has drawn three times. The team cannot achieve a victory, and in this game, it is also unlikely to achieve its first victory, given the difference in the level of play with the opponent. South Korea is the leader of the group, and it is not going to lose points in matches with a team that is significantly lower in playing class. We will bet on the visitors to confidently win the match with a difference of several goals.
Our forecast is Asian handicap (-1.5) on South Korea with odds of 1.63
Bet on total
Kuwait have failed to score against teams like Iraq and Oman in recent games. The upcoming opponent is much higher in playing class, so we will bet on the hosts leaving the field without scoring a goal again.
Our prediction is that at least one will not score with odds of 1.52
Bet on corners
If South Korea plays in its own style and the way it knows how, it will beat its opponent in many areas, including the number of corner flag serves.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-2.5) corners for South Korea with odds of 1.60
