THE PREDICTION
This looks set to be one to watch this midweek as Japan welcome Korea Republic to Yokohama for an international with real history behind it. Neither side have played a match so far in 2021 and both lost to Mexico last November in their most recent friendlies, with Japan beating Panama and South Korea beating Qatar in their second fixtures. Korea Republic have won the last two editions of this fixture 1-0 at home back in 2019 but matches between the two have been competitive throughout the last decade. The home advantage should help the hosts in this match-up and the loss of world class player Heung-Min Son for the visitors is a massive blow. Both teams to score and draw no bet in favour of the hosts looks to be a useful combination here.
