South Korea - Chile Prediction, Picks and Tips
South Korea, the team that left Germany out of the last World Cup, comes from winning at home to Costa Rica 2-0 last Friday in their first match under Portuguese Paulo Bento. He is making use of his main elements: Ky Sung Yueng (Newcastle), Son Heung Min (Tottenham), Ji Dong Won (Augsburg) and Hwang Hee Chan (Hamburg). While Chile could not dispute its friendly against Japan due to the earthquake that shook the Asian island.
The technician Reinaldo Rueda has dispensed with his main attackers - Alexis Sánchez and Eduardo Vargas - to give way to players with less hierarchy. For now, the weight of the team will fall on the experienced Medel, Isla, Vidal and Aranguiz. With the Colombian strategist this South American team was a tough obstacle for the World Cup rivals that he faced in the first part of the year (he only lost to Romania).
Paulo Bento, the new coach of Korea, comes from directing a Chinese club without much success. Chile did not lose in their friendlies against World Cup teams this year: they beat Sweden and Serbia; tied with Denmark and Poland. This year Coreo faced a South American team: 0-0 against Bolivia. Ángelo Henríquez and Ángelo Sagal will be the attack leaders in Chile; 2 goals with the selection each.
