Betting on Ghana | 3 Points – 2nd Place
The African side was expected to put up a fight in a Group H full of good teams, and they did not disappoint as they recovered from a 3-2 opening loss to Portugal to beat South Korea on Monday and move into second place in the section.
The Black Stars went out like wild beasts against their Asian rivals and managed to go into the break with a 2-0 lead, and although South Korea had a three-minute offensive outburst to equalize, 22-year-old Mohammed Kudus came on to make the score 3-2 with his second goal of the match in the 68th minute.
A draw and a result other than a two-goal margin win by South Korea against Portugal would seal Ghana’s place in the round of 16. A win here would not only give them a place in the next round regardless of the other group result, but would also give them the chance to take the top spot in the group if Portugal loses by a three-goal margin.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Lawrence Ati-Zigi, Gideon Mensah, Mohammed Salisu, Daniel Amartey, Tariq Lamptey, Salis Abdul Samed, Thomas Partey, Jordan Ayew, Andre Ayew, Mohammed Kudus, Inaki Williams.
Betting on Uruguay | 1 point – 4th place
It has not been an easy group stage for two-time world champions Uruguay, who not only failed to win, but also failed to score after two matches, making them one of three teams (Mexico, Tunisia) to reach this final day without knowing what it means to celebrate a goal.
La Celeste drew against South Korea in their opening match and recorded a tough 0-2 defeat against Portugal in their previous match, however, at the end of that game they showed some interesting things that may give them confidence for this match, since they even had the chance to tie it with a shot against the post.
If they want to advance to the next stage of the tournament, Diego Alonso’s team must bring out their famous “Garra Charrúa” (the famous strength and intensity typical of the Uruguayan team) to win this match and hope that South Korea does not defeat Portugal, since any other result would not help them.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Sergio Rochet, Mathías Olivera, Diego Godín, Jose María Giménez, Guillermo Varela, Rodrigo Bentancur; Giorgian de Arrascaeta, Federico Valverde, Darwin Nunez, Edinson Cavani, Facundo Pellistri.
JefeBet Prediction
With the need to win, Uruguay will forget the conservative stance they have had so far and will go on the attack from the start, something more logical considering the interesting weapons they have on offense, and which will surely give many problems to a Ghana team that has looked fragile in defense, allowing two goals in each of their two matches.
However, the Africans have also shown dangerous tools on the offensive, so Uruguay must not be careless at the back line, or they will face many obstacles like in their match against Portugal.
Uruguay is a team that has historically played this kind of do-or-die game, while these situations always seem to overcome African teams, which often have defensive mistakes or gross errors. That is why we hope to see the rebirth of the Garra Charrúa in this opportunity, achieving a victory and a place in the round of 16.
