Uruguay Korea Republic betting prediction

Uruguay plays its firts match in this edition of the World Cup with the intention of getting a positive result. They come to this match after a win against Canada by (0‑2). Uruguay has won 7, tied 1 and lost 2 of the last 10 matches. Defensive consistency has been one of their best features, as they have only conceded goals in 3 of the last 10 matches, and their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches. Goals have been frequent in their matches, as 12 of the last 24 have ended with Under 1,5 goals and 17 out of 24 have ended with Under 2,5 goals. They have conceded the first goal in 5 of their 15 matches, and have never been able to turn the score around.

The change in command of the Uruguay national team was more than necessary, as they performed well below usual in the 2014 and 2018 World Cups. For Óscar Tabárez's place, the Uruguayan federation hired coach Diego Alonso. Uruguay usually plays in a 4-3-3, favoring a faster playing style, with the three forward players being Facundo Pellistri, Darwin Núñez and Luis Suárez. The man responsible for defining and leading his team's attacks is midfielder Federico Valverde, a player with an enviable vision of the match. The Uruguayan coach has doubts about Edinson Cavani and Ronald Araújo, players who have some physical complaints.

Confirmed Lineup: Sergio Rochet, Diego Godín, José Giménez, Mathias Olivera, Martín Cáceres, Federico Valverde, Matías Vecino, Rodrigo Bentancur, Luis Suárez, Darwin Nuñez, Facundo Pellistri Rebollo.
Coach: M. Bielsa Caldera.
