It has been another frustrating World Cup qualification campaign for Kuwait as they wrap up with an away trip to South Korea. This final, third-round match finds the two nations at extreme ends in Group B: Korea leading and Kuwait at the bottom. Let’s look at the prediction.
South Korea’s away win in Iraq saw them snap up one of the available slots for Asia at the 2026 World Cup. They don’t have more to play for other than entertaining home fans and looking to finish unbeaten.
Three straight draws had threatened Korea’s campaign, but a 2-0 win in Basra last week gave them an unassailable lead.
As Korea secured their ticket, on that same day Kuwait’s campaign was brought to an end in a 2-0 home defeat by Palestine. A home win would have at least seen them go into this final round hoping to make it to the next stage of the qualifiers.
That’s all gone for now, and being four points behind Palestine, they are set to finish at the bottom of this pool. The loss to Palestine marked a sixth straight winless outing for Kuwait.
Heading into this one, they have managed just one win in 17 matches. Chances they could close with a win are quite low, having lost in each of the last five meetings with Korea.

Our South Korea vs Kuwait Prediction
Korea needed just a point away to Iraq to secure their place at the 2026 World Cup, but they went all the way to win. They close their campaign with a home match, facing a team they’ve been superb against over the years.
Korea are also unbeaten in this round of the qualifiers and face a team that’s struggling. Kuwait failed to score three times in the last five matches and in four of their latest five meetings with Korea. The same could happen here. Our prediction for South Korea v Kuwait is for South Korea to win to nil.
