Although they have dropped below 50th place in the FIFA rankings after numerous defeats in friendlies, the Koreans are capable of coming into form at any time. It would be a grave mistake to underestimate this generation that won the bronze medal at the last Olympics. After qualifying comfortably in the Europe zone ahead of Portugal, the Russians start this World Cup with high hopes in a very accessible Group H. It has to be said that Fabio Capello has put together a squad that combines youth, experience, talent and power. All that remains is to strike the right balance of these ingredients to create a team capable of taking Russia through to the last 16 of a World Cup tournament for the first time ever. Who'll use this match to establish themselves as Belgium's main rivals in Group H?
