2022 World Cup: Brazil vs. South Korea odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Monday’s Brazil vs. South Korea odds and lines, with World Cup soccer expert picks, predictions and best bets.

Brazil and South Korea meet Monday in the Round of 16 at Stadium 974. Kickoff is set for 2 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Brazil vs. South Korea odds, and make our best World Cup bets, picks and predictions.

Brazil won Group G, but lost as a -260 favorite 1-0 vs. Cameroon Friday in its final group stage match. Despite losing, Brazil dominated Cameroon in shots (21-7) and shots on target (7-3).

Paris Saint-Germaine striker Neymar (ankle) has reportedly been receiving cryotherapy in hopes of getting himself fit for Monday.

Brazil, the No. 1 team in FIFA’s world rankings, is the favorite to win the World Cup at +210.

South Korea qualified with 4 points out of Group H and eliminated Uruguay with its 2-1 win vs. Portugal Friday. F Hwang Hee-chan scored the stoppage-time winner as South Korea cashed as a +340 underdog.

South Korea, FIFA’s No. 28 team, is tied with Poland and Australia for the worst odds to win outright at +20000 ($100 to win $20,000).

Prediction

Brazil 1, South Korea 0

Moneyline (ML)

Brazil (-350) should cash, but the price is too high considering the squad’s play as of late. While Brazil did not need to win vs. Cameroon, it has not looked like a team that is capable of winning by margin in its last 2 games. After an impressive 2-0 win vs. Serbia in its World Cup opener, Brazil has scored just 1 goal over its last 2 matches.

BET SOUTH KOREA +2 (-106).

Over/Under (O/U)

The Under is 3-0 in Brazil’s games this tournament and I expect this trend to continue Monday as manager Tite’s squad continues to be underwhelming on offense. South Korea should come out playing very conservatively vs. this year’s favorites and, in an effort to avoid mistakes, help the Under stay undefeated in Brazil’s 2022 World Cup matches.

BET UNDER 2.5 (-105).
