As they embark on the Asian Cup, South Korea aims to build on their recent success, having started each of their last three campaigns with a win.
Bahrain:
On the other hand, Bahrain suffered a 3-0 defeat against Angola in their recent outing, marking their third consecutive loss since a 2-0 victory over Yemen in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Helio Sousa's team faces the challenge of regaining form and scoring goals as they enter the Asian Cup, aiming to avoid an early exit.
