Saturday's Asian Cup predictions including Jordan vs. South Korea

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Asian Cup fixtures, including Jordan vs. South Korea.

Group E action at the Asian Cup continues on Saturday with a first-place showdown, as Jordan take on South Korea at Al Thumama Stadium.

The Jordanians began their campaign with an impressive 4-0 win over Malaysia, while the Tigers of Asia scored a pair of second-half goals to defeat Bahrain 3-1.

We say: Jordan 0-2 South Korea


Jordan have never beaten South Korea in five previous meetings, failing to score on four occasions, and given their injury concerns we expect them to have difficulty creating many chances on Saturday.

We believe the difficult opening match for the South Koreans will serve as a wake-up call for a group of players desperate to get their country back on top of the Asian podium.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 2.5 goals.

Bahrain vs. Malaysia (Saturday, 2.30pm)

For the first time in their history, Bahrain and Malaysia will square off in an Asian Cup group fixture, with that encounter taking place at Jassim Bin Hamad Stadium on Saturday.

Each team enter this contest with a defeat, as Bahrain were beaten 3-1 by South Korea on matchday one, while the Malaysians lost 4-0 to Jordan.

We say: Bahrain 2-0 Malaysia


Malaysia look vulnerable on the back end and could be understandably fragile following what transpired in their opening fixture, and that is something we think will work to the advantage of Bahrain.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 2.5 goals.
