Replicating their fourth-place finish when joint-hosts in 2002 may prove difficult but a strong squad means South Korea could easily outrun their odds. Tottenham legend Son Heung-Min leads the line and is supported by Wolves’ Hwang Hee-Chan and PSG’s Lee Kang-In while a solid backline is marshalled by Bayern Munich defender Kim Min-Jae. Four points should be enough to be a best third-place qualifier and that looks well within South Korea's compass.
