On Thursday, Uruguay and South Korea will face off in their Group H matchup for the 2022 FIFA World Cup at the Education City Stadium. In Group H, Uruguay and Ghana have been placed alongside Portugal and Ghana. Uruguay is participating in the FIFA World Cup for the fourth time in a row and advanced to the quarterfinals in the previous tournament.
Despite the fact that their previous two World Cup campaigns ended in the group stage, South Korea has qualified for their fifth World Cup in a row. Uruguay will play their first game since a friendly match in September when they defeated Canada 2-0.
Earlier this month, South Korea defeated Iceland in a warm-up match, winning 1-0. Since Portugal will most likely win the group, it is likely that the other three teams will fight hard for second place. Therefore, both Uruguay and South Korea must avoid dropping points in this game.

Uruguay vs South Korea Prediction :
La Celeste will be optimistic about the game’s outcome because of their strong record against South Korea. However, it should be noted that Uruguay lost the previous meeting between the two teams in 2018 by a score of 2-1.
The fact that Taegeuk Warriors will have Son Hueng-Min available for the start of the campaign will significantly boost their morale. We anticipate that they will play well against Uruguay, but the South American giants have quality players at every position and should be able to win by a small margin.
Prediction: Uruguay 2-1 South Korea
