South Korea is going head to head with Uruguay starting on 28 Mar 2023 at 11:00 UTC . The match is a part of the International Matches. The sacking of Tabarez as Uruguay boss following 15 years in the job has thrown their preparation into disarray, despite the positive results they are getting on the pitch.
Alonso has come in and completely transformed a side which was on the floor following some woeful results in South American qualifying, but he still does not know his best starting XI or best system.
Tabarez was dismissed as manager with qualification in serious doubt after four successive defeats, including a humiliating 4-1 loss in Brazil and a 3-0 defeat away in the notoriously difficult altitude of Bolivia.
The visitors endured a difficult World Cup campaign last year, prompting the resignation of head coach Diego Alonso after a group-stage exit. Marcelo Broli has been named interim boss and will look to lead La Celeste to victory this week.
South Korea are on a run of back-to-back winless outings and have won just one of their last five matches. They are, however, undefeated in their last seven home games and will head into the midweek clash with confidence.
Uruguay have won just one of their last four matches after winning seven of their previous nine. They have had mixed results on the road of late and may have to settle for a draw here.
Prediction: South Korea 1-1 Uruguay

Ki-Je Lee was withdrawn in the first half against Colombia, with Kim Jin-su replacing the centre-back, and the Jeonbuk defender is likely to keep his place in the team, making his first start since featuring against Brazil at the World Cup.
Kim Min-jae is likely to accompany the 30-year-old in defence, owing to his fantastic form for Napoli so far this season, making 26 league appearances for the Serie A leaders.
Jung Woo-young also picked up an injury issue in the last match, meaning Klinsmann may be forced to replace the central midfielder with Jun-Ho Son.
He was benched vs Switzerland, they won 6-1. They played better without him plus he wasn’t effective against Ghana, Uruguay and South Korea https://t.co/oiVzQk3J8A

Friendly Games for the two teams, we can be anxious to find out who triumphs as the first winner of the season, and the team that scores the first points. Looking at a team’s past performances is one of the best ways to predict their performance in a future match, but there’s also more to consider.
Experts feel that Republic of Korea takes the odds by a small margin (with 41%) while a win of Uruguay is evaluated with 31.2%; important to remember when placing a wager.
