The United States Men's National Team, known as USMNT, will be back in action this week, with Mauricio Pochettino's troops lining up and the South Koreans in Harrison, New Jersey, where Red Bull Arena will host. This will be the first time that the Stars and Stripes enter the field since their disappointing Gold Cup Final loss to Mexico. Can they put that defeat behind them and pick up a win against some rather useful opposition?
For the South Koreans, this is a great opportunity to prepare and show what they can do ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, some of which will be played in the US. Last time out, the men coached by Hong Myung-bo lost to Japan on home soil, failing to score in a game for the first time since the beginning of 2024. They too will be looking to deliver an improved showing.

Our USA vs South Korea Prediction
Realistically, it's hard to conclude anything other than 'Over 2.5 Goals' being a little generously priced in the early betting. In recent times, whenever Mauricio Pochettino's men have played on home soil, it's been high-scoring stuff, with them showing plenty of offensive quality but also a lack of defensive solidity. The South Koreans know how to score on the road too, so don't be surprised if this is a friendly fixture full of goals. Our USA vs South Korea Pick: Over 2.5 Goals.
