Uruguay vs South Korea: Live stream, TV channel, kick-off time & where to watch

Uruguay begin their 2022 World Cup campaign in Group H with an encounter against South Korea at the Education City Stadium on Thursday.

The South American nation have been in good form heading into the tournament as they have triumphed on seven occasions out of nine since January 2022. They have conceded just twice in these nine games which shows that they are a difficult nut to crack at the back.

Meanwhile, South Korea are also unbeaten in their last six matches and manager Paulo Bento will hope that his ace Son Heung-min fires right from the start to keep Uruguay's defence on their toes. They are also known for discipline at the back as they shipped just three goals in 10 matches during the qualification stage.
