Russia - South Korea 
Let's go to tomorrow and start with the Russia-South Korea match.
Russia is traditionally one of the big teams in Europe and although it can not be ranked in the first place, it is definitely one of the best in the 2nd category. It has always been one of the favorites to qualify in its groups and this year it goes with a team that has an alloy of new players accompanied by some old caravans but that is still in an age of great supply and experience.
Several of the big names of the past have left but there are still several players left who can pull the chestnuts out of the fire.
On the other hand, South Korea, although it has as a legacy the great course in its own Mundial, since then it has not been able to do anything special and after the departure of several of that generation it has certainly fallen far in level as it lacks both quality and experiences since now few of its players play in major clubs in Europe.
For the bet I keep 2 data and I hope they justify us.
a) The first has to do with the form of the 2 teams and how they presented themselves in most of their friendlies. Russia is a team that concedes very difficult goals and usually wins marginally, but it does so quite often. Of course, he did not give friendly matches with strong teams, so they cannot draw very good conclusions. On the other hand, we have a very good view of South Korea, which gave several friendly and inferior teams to Russia and lost in most without even scoring in most. So they lost 4-0 to Ghana, 0-1 to Tunisia, 2-0 to the US and 4-0 to Mexico while in a friendly with Russia late last year they lost 2-1. Only victory in the match with Greece.
Also to say that many conclusions can not be drawn from their official matches since both and especially Russia played several matches with weak teams.
b) But the second one I hold is Capello, the coach of Russia. Even if he has not shown much in recent years, he remains a huge European coach who has a lot of success at the collective and national level and I believe that he will raise it too high.
So in a group where there is also Belgium, even a draw can put it out of the next phase and even marginally I think that Russia can win the match
