Analysis

How it plays out

Both sides run a counter attacker system, so this becomes a test of who executes the same ideas better on the day. Czech Republic's aggressive press (PPDA 20.4) against South Korea's deeper build-up (PPDA 25.0) creates a clear territory question: can Czech Republic force errors high up, or will South Korea play through the press and find space behind it?

What decides it

Both sides run the same system (counter attacker), so execution quality separates them, not tactical asymmetry. Son Heung-min carries the marginally higher scoring probability (11.9% vs 6.6%).

Off the pitch

No major off-pitch asymmetries. This one is decided by the football.

The angle

Likely the last World Cup for Kim Seung-gyu. Tournament experience at this level is hard to quantify but hard to replace.

A probabilidade publicada para esta partida é fixada na confirmação das escalações (≈1 hora antes do início) e não se atualiza depois. É o número que a revisão pós-jogo cobra. A probabilidade de vitória ao vivo na seção Live é uma estimativa separada, com atraso e descritiva; ela não substitui a previsão publicada.

Como funciona a probabilidade ao vivo. A previsão pré-jogo publicada é congelada no fechamento das escalações (T-1h) e não muda após o início; a revisão pós-jogo avalia esse número congelado frente ao resultado. A probabilidade de vitória ao vivo mostrada durante a partida é o mesmo modelo, relido conforme o placar e o tempo restante. Atualiza mais ou menos uma vez por minuto, está sempre com atraso e é um número descritivo de pesquisa, não um produto de jogos nem um preço de qualquer tipo. Veja /docs/methodology/ para o enquadramento completo.
