China vs South Korea predicted lineups
China
Predicted Lineup – Yan (GK), Zhang, Jiang, Zhu, Liu, Wu, Yennaris, Shangyuan, Li, Yuning, Tan
South Korea
Predicted Lineup – Kim (GK), K. Lee, Seol, M. Kim, Su, I. Hwang, H. Hwang, J. Lee, K. Lee, H. Oh, Cho
Confirmed lineups will appear here around 60 minutes before kickoff.
Player to watch: Hee-chan Hwang
Hwang will certainly have to keep stepping up on Tuesday for South Korea if Son Heung-min is going to miss out after taking a heavy blow during their dominant 5-0 win against Singapore, but judging off his recent form, that won't be an issue.
The Wolves star has two goals and an assist in his last two international appearances including one strike against Indonesia, but he's also performing week in and week out for Wolves with six goals and two assists to his name in the Premier League thus far.
As such, Hwang's first goal scorer and South Korea to win market could be a very solid punt for anyone looking for something more specific.
China vs South Korea prediction – The final word
South Korea will be wary of an upset, especially if their captain Son is not fit enough to start, however, they should still have way too much for China.
