South Korea vs. South Africa Prediction, Odds, Picks For World Cup Match

South Korea will face South Africa in their final Group A match of the 2026 FIFA World Cup on Wednesday, June 24, 2026, at Monterrey Stadium on FS1.

This is the first-ever World Cup meeting between the two nations.

South Korea opened its World Cup campaign with a 2-1 comeback win over Czechia before losing 1-0 to Mexico on Thursday. After conceding due to Kim Seung-Gyu’s goalkeeping miscue early in the second half, South Korea had 67% of possession and outshot Mexico 7-2 the rest of the match. 

The Taegeuk Warriors look to carry over that momentum as it looks to advance to the knockout round with a win or draw.

Meanwhile, after losing 2-0 to Mexico in an opener in which it lost two players to red cards, South Africa stayed alive in the tournament on Teboho Mokoena’s 83rd-minute penalty that salvaged a 1-1 draw against Czechia. 

In that match, South Africa controlled 61% of possesion and outshot Czechia 17-14.
