On Tuesday afternoon, Jordan and South Korea clash in the first of two semi-finals in the Asian Cup, as the two teams compete for a place in the competition's final.
Jordan are one of the surprise packages of the competition
Hussein Ammouta’s team have been one of the surprise packages of the Asian Cup.
They made it through to the knockout stages by finishing third place in Group E, behind Tuesday’s opponents, who finished second in the standings.
After recording a win, a draw and a loss in the group stages, Jordan defeated Iraq and Tajikistan to book their place in the last four of the competition.
It will be Jordan’s first-ever appearance in the semi-finals of the Asian Cup.
Their recent history, including this year's tournament at the Asian Cup, has been inconsistent, as they have won just three of their last seven games in the competition.
South Korea scraped through to the last four
While Jordan has won both their games in the knockout rounds in normal time, South Korea has needed penalties to get past Saudi Arabia and extra time to beat Australia 2-1.
However, it must be said that their opponents have been more challenging than the teams Jordan has had to face in the last 16.
The two draws over 90 minutes in the knockout stages have made Jurgen Klinsmann’s team five games unbeaten at the Asian Cup.
In fact, South Korea have now lost just one of their previous 26 Asian Cup games over 90 minutes.
The one defeat in normal time came in the 2019 final when they suffered a 1-0 defeat against Qatar.
What does Forebet predict?
Forebet predicts this will be a close contest, likely ending in a low-scoring draw, and decided in extra-time or a penalty shootout.
