Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's international friendly fixtures, including Wales vs. South Korea.

Bulgaria vs. Iran (Thursday, 5.00pm)

Bulgaria will be attempting to end their four-match run without a victory in all competitions on Thursday when they face Iran in an international friendly.

The visitors are undefeated since the World Cup and will be attempting to build up as much form as possible heading into the upcoming qualifiers for the 2026 tournament.

We say: Bulgaria 0-2 Iran

Bulgaria might have the home advantage heading into this match, but Iran bring a stronger squad and the confidence behind their recent results should help them.

The Persian Stars have impressed with recent performances, and that is something that should lead to them taking a comfortable victory.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Norway vs. Jordan (Thursday, 6.00pm)

With just one victory in their previous six matches in all competitions, Norway will be hoping to pick up some momentum as they head into the upcoming international friendlies.

Their opponents, Jordan, are the polar opposite in terms of form at the moment due to suffering only a single loss in the same number of games.

We say: Norway 2-1 Jordan

Jordan might come into this game with better form in recent times, but the attacking qualities of the hosts is likely going to be too much.

Haaland has all the potential to fire Norway to victory here, and while he has a lot of pressure on his shoulders, that is something he is capable of dealing with.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Austria vs. Moldova (Thursday, 7.30pm)

Before turning their focus to Euro 2024 qualifying, Austria and Moldova will go head-to-head at the Raiffeisen Arena in an international friendly on Thursday.

The hosts are enjoying a six-game unbeaten run, while Moldova return to action in a positive mood after beating Poland in their most recent outing.

We say: Austria 2-0 Moldova

Austria go into Thursday's friendly off the back of a positive run of form, and we think they will prove far too strong for their lowly-ranked opponents.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Wales vs. South Korea (Thursday, 7.45pm)

Wales and South Korea will both be desperate to claim a victory when they face off in a friendly at the Cardiff City Stadium on Thursday.

The hosts are hoping to bounce back from consecutive defeats, while South Korea are still searching for the first victory of Jurgen Klinsmann's tenure.

We say: Wales 1-1 South Korea

The two nations will be looking to leave Cardiff City Stadium with a victory, but with both teams lacking in confidence, we think they could play out a cagey draw in the Welsh capital.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
