Why Bet Uruguay -130
✅ The Uruguay attack is elite, and I think it will be too much for South Korea to handle.
✅ Son Heung-min is dealing with a facial fracture and it remains to be seen how he plays with a mask on for the first time.
✅ These are the two teams, most likely, competing for second place and a loss or draw does neither team any good.

Uruguay
Uruguay is entering their fourth consecutive World Cup, 14th overall, and will hope to become the fourth team to win three World Cups. The Sky Blue got to Qatar 2022 by finishing third in CONMEBOL World Cup Qualifying.
The Sky Blue are one of the older teams at the World Cup, but they are still very talented. Edinson Cavani and Luis Suarez will bring experience to the front line, but Darwin Nunez and Facundo Pellistri look to usher in the new generation. The midfield will be led by Matias Vecino, Rodrigo Bentancur, and Federico Valverde.
In defense, Diego Godin, Jose Gimenez, and Martin Caceres will lead an experienced back line. The goalie will be the experienced Fernando Muslera.
South Korea
South Korea is through to their 10th consecutive World Cup, 11th overall, and will look to get out of the group stage for the first time since 2010. The ‘Taegeuk Warriors’ advanced to the World Cup after finishing second in Group A of AFC World Cup Qualifying.
South Korea is a team led by the midfield and their one true star, Son Heung-min. Son will be joined in the midfield by Hwang Hee-chan, Jung Woo-young, and Lee Jae-sung. The South Korea team has just two forwards on the roster to go with their 12 midfielders.
In defense, Kim Jin-su, Kim Min-jae, and Kim Young-gwon will anchor an experienced back line. The starting goalie will be the experienced Kim Seung-gyu,
