South Korea Win or Draw and Under 2.5 Goals
South Korea are undefeated at home in the Qatar 2022 World Cup qualifiers in the two phases. In addition, the last three h2h meetings ended in draws of which two were in Seoul. Also, there is a 60% chance for us to see under 2.5 goals.
South Korea 0 Goals Handicap
With a streak that extends to 20 matches dating back to September 2019, South Korea have not lost a single competitive match. Obviously, covering the 0 goal handicap in all those fixtures, the Tigers of Asia are favorites to cover it again in front of their fans on Thursday.
First Half Total Goals Under 1 Goal
South Korea’s all matches in the third phase World Cup qualifiers saw one or fewer goals in the first half. Likewise, the same feat happened in Iran’s last two WCQ fixtures. Exploring their h2h games, we see that the first half of the last 12 meetings saw one or fewer goals.

Preliminary Review and Match Prediction for South Korea vs Iran
Despite the fact that both teams already qualified for the Qatar 2022 World Cup, they both want to finish top of the group. Currently, Iran are leading the chase with 22 points two more than South Korea.
On South Korea’s side, manager Paolo Bento wants to maintain their unbeaten form as he stated that they will play to win. Moreover, the Tigers scored in all eight of their last ten matches in the WCQ in Seoul. On the other end, South Korea share the best defense in the qualifiers with just two goals conceded in eight games in the third phase.
Playing in their sixth World Cup finals and third consecutive are Iran who are undefeated in 15 matches. Notably, Iran did manage to win in 2013 in Seoul beating South Korea 0-1 for the 2014 WCQ. Surely, a similar result will be welcomed by coach Dragan Skocic and the Iranian fans as it would guarantee them winning Group A.
South Korea vs Iran Prediction
Both South Korea and Iran play a similar style of football keeping possession of the ball patiently. In addition, both teams have very prolific scorers in their teams, Son of Tottenham for South Korea and Taremi of Porto for Iran. It will be interesting to watch who will come on top if they both play.
We think South Korea have a slight edge over Iran as they are playing at home where they have an incredible record. Nonetheless, we will combine a home win with a draw and under 3.5 goals.
Safe Bet
In two of their eight matches in the third phase of the World Cup qualifiers, South scored in the first half. Meanwhile, Iran conceded only one goal in that same period. Hence, backing South Korea not to score in the first half has odds of 1.59 and we will consider it as our safe bet.
Quick Rich
Both teams have similar records and forms in the World Cup qualifiers and will be happy with a draw here. Moreover, six of the last eight h2h meetings ended in a stalemate. Vbet is offering 3.11 for a draw and we will back it as an option for a quick profit.
South Korea vs Iran First Goalscorer
Mehdi Taremi is Iran’s best scorer now scoring 30 goals in 57 caps for the Iranian national team. Moreover the 29-year-old plays his club football for FC Porto and is the top scorer with 14 goals this season. Thus we will back Mehdi Taremi to be the first goalscorer on Thursday.
