Saudi Arabia – South Korea preview: News, latest form, and possible lineups

Check out the latest information on both teams ahead of their duel here, including the most likely Saudi Arabia vs South Korea lineups:

Saudi Arabia

Despite making a change and bringing Roberto Mancini as a new manager of the team, Saudi Arabia failed to end their losing streak after the Italian made his debut on the bench with a 3-1 loss to Costa Rica. Saudi Arabia now lost five games in a row, but at least these friendly games will give Mancini a better idea of what he has to work with when it comes to this squad.

Saudi Arabia predicted lineup:

Al-Aqidi – Al-Ghannam, Al-Shahrani, Al-Bulaihi, Abdulhamid – Al-Khaibari, Kanno, Al-Najei – Al-Buraikan, Ghareeb, Al-Dawsari

South Korea

The loss to Brazil at the 2022 World Cup was the last competitive match for South Korea, but the team did play in five friendly games since then. Unfortunately for South Korea fans, they failed to win any of them, notching three draws and a couple of losses. So, it's clear that Korea's manager Jurgen Klinsmann still has a lot of work before he gets this team in good form.

South Korea predicted lineup:

Seung-gyu – Young-woo, Seung-hyun, Min-jae, Ki-jee – Hee-chan, Yong-woo, In-beom, Jae-sung – Ui-jo, Heung-min

Starting lineups:

Teams often release their lineups one hour before the kickoff.

Player to watch: Son Heung-min

While South Korea has struggled recently, they still have the biggest star in this match and it is Tottenham's Son Heung-min, who will once again lead his team and be our player to watch.

The experienced winger so far notched 112 games for South Korea and scored 37 goals, so Saudi Arabia should be aware of the danger that Son Heung-min represents in this duel.
