The Brazilian team enters this match after a defeat, 1-0, against Cameroon, putting an end to two straight wins in this World Cup 2022. Note that Brazil finished in 1st place in Group G with 6 points. Tite’s team usually plays in a 4-3-3 tactical design, where the three most advanced men are Raphinha, Richarlison and Vinícius Júnior, the latter being very fast and competent in finishing. The number 9 Richarlison is the scorer of this team with 2 goals. The Brazilian coach has in doubt Alex Telles, Alex Sandro, Neymar and Danilo, all with physical problems.

It should be noted that the South Koreans finished in 2nd place in Group H with 4 points. Like the “enemy” of this phase, South Korea should act in a 4-3-3 tactical system, in order to maintain the defensive organization and attack through counter attacks. It should be noted that in this scheme, the players who will occupy the most offensive zone are Heung-min Son, Jae-sung Lee and Gue-sung Cho. All players are available for this game.
