Mexico vs South Korea Prediction and Betting Tips | September 9th 2025

Mexico will lock horns against South Korea in an international friendly on Tuesday. Both teams were unbeaten in their respective friendlies last week and will look to conclude the ongoing international break with a win.

El Tri met Japan in Oakland last week and played out a goalless draw. Defender César Montes was sent off in stoppage time after a VAR check, which overturned the original decision of a yellow card. Notably, they are unbeaten in their last eight games in all competitions.

The Taegeuk Warriors squared off against the USA in their previous outing and registered a 2-0 win. Son Heung-min broke the deadlock in the 18th minute and assisted Lee Dong-gyeong's 43rd-minute strike.

Mexico vs South Korea Prediction

El Tri failed to score for the first time in a friendly match since September 2024 last week and will look to return to goalscoring ways here. They are on a three-game winning streak against Korea, scoring nine goals, and will look to build on that form.

Taegeuk Warriors have suffered just one loss across all competitions in 2025. Notably, they have scored at least two goals in five of their last six games and will look to continue that prolific run here.

Both teams have been in good touch in 2025, and with not much at stake here, they will likely settle for a draw.
