Mexico host South Korea at the World Cup with both sides aiming to guarantee their place in the Round of 32. With the draw between Czech Republic and South Africa earlier, the winner of this game will be the first to qualify for the knockout stages.

FC Bayern's center-back Kim Min-jae and Mainz's Lee Jae-sung maintain their place in South Korea's XI, while Borussia Mönchengladbach's German-born midfielder Jens Castrop will hope to make his debut off the bench. The three hosts have been unbeaten so far in the competition.
