DPR Korea vs Portugal prediction
Whilst Portugal boasts notorious footballing pedigree, their women’s youth teams have traditionally struggled to compete with the top nations and they’ve only just finally managed to reach the U-20 Women’s World Cup for the very first time. They’ll need to utilise their streetwise skills and intelligent footballing play in order to defeat regular trophy contenders and reigning champions DPR Korea.
The holders won’t be letting complacency cloud their game and will no doubt take the game to Portugal early on with an aggressive playstyle that focuses on gaining control of the ball as quickly as possible and playing around their opponents. Whilst European nations are getting better by the year, this particular contest is expected to see DPR Korea defeat the debutants.
