Iran vs North Korea match Prediction 10 June 2025

Iran will aim to secure a win and maintain their top place in the Group A standing even though they have already qualified for the World Cup 2026, while North Korea battling with their winless streak of four games, will aim to prevent losing to extend their winless streak to five games even though they have lost their access of qualifying to the World Cup 2026. Therefore, I expect the home team to secure a win since they have won early in two of their last five games against the visiting team. However, even though I expect the home team to secure a win early, I expect the visiting team to find the in returns since they have scored in their last five games. Hence, I expect more than two goals to be recorded.
