Jordan will face South Korea at the Amman International Stadium on Thursday in another game of their third-round 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers. The home side are enjoying a positive run of results at the moment and are now on the hunt for their first-ever World Cup appearance as they sit atop Group B with four points from two matches.
They beat Palestine 3-1 in their last match, with Yazan Al-Naimat scoring a brace before midfielder Noor Al-Rawabdeh got in on the act in the final 20 minutes of normal time.
South Korea, meanwhile, were held to a goalless draw by Palestine in their group opener last month and deserved much more from the game but were guilty of wasteful finishing. However, they bounced back in convincing fashion, beating Oman 3-1 in their second group outing with three different players getting on the scoresheet, including star forward Heung-Min Son who netted his 49th international goal.
The visitors sit second in their group, although they are level on points with their midweek opponents and will leapfrog them with maximum points on Thursday.
