Two months ago, Mexico was crowned the Concacaf Gold Cup champion after beating Mexico 2-1 in the final. That was their tenth crown, making them the most successful club in the competition.
However, their return to the international stage was far from impressive. In their most recent match, they were drawn against Japan in a friendly game. Nothing could separate the two teams as they played to a goalless draw, halting a three-match winning streak.
Some positive aspects can be drawn from that result, as Javier Aguirre's men have now avoided defeat in their last eight matches, recording six wins and two draws. That unbeaten run has the potential to hit nine when they face South Korea. As of now, they have won three matches in a row in this fixture.
Mexico: Team News
Mexico have no injury concerns heading into this clash and should be able to field a strong starting lineup.
San Diego forward Hirving Lozano made his first appearance after a one-year absence from the Mexican senior national team. FC Copenhagen defender Rodrigo Huescas, who was omitted from the squad that took part in the Concacaf Gold Cup, also received a call-up but did not take part in the friendly game against Japan.
Cesar Montes was shown a red card in the last outing against Japan. He won't take part in this match, meaning Purata is likely to fill in for him.
🔖 Probable Starting XI (4-3-3): Malagon; Sanchez, Purata, Vasquez, Gallardo; Ruiz, Alvarez, Pineda; Vega, Jimenez, Alvarado.
⛔️ Out: Cesar Montes.
👤 Head coach: Javier Aguirre.

South Korea, on the other hand, was recently involved in the EAFF East Asian Cup in July. They had an impressive run, winning their first two games before succumbing to a 1-0 defeat against Japan on the final day, missing the opportunity to win the trophy.
After that setback, their return to the international stage brought joy to their fans. Myung-bo Hong's charges were drawn against the United States in a friendly game. Despite the odds being stacked against them, they managed to secure a 2-0 away win. The team's captain, Heung-Min Son, and Dong-Gyeong Lee were on target for the visitors.
Now, the Tigers of Asia are confronted with a tough challenge in Mexico. The main objective heading into this clash is to halt a three-match losing streak. Their last win against this opponent came in 2006, winning 1-0 away from home in a friendly game.
South Korea: Team News
South Korea have no injury concerns heading into this clash and should be able to field a strong starting lineup.
Head coach Myung-bo Hong lined up his team in a 5-4-1 formation last time out against the United States. The decision was rewarding, and there's a good chance he is going to name the same lineup in the upcoming encounter.
Jens Castrop, who recently made headlines by becoming the first non-native to be called up to the South Korean senior national team, came on in the 63rd minute against the United States and impressed in his debut. He could come off the bench again and make a positive impact.
🔖 Probable Starting XI (5-4-1): Jo; Tae-Seok Lee, Ju-Sung Kim, Min-Jae Kim, Han-Beom Lee, Young-Woo Seol; Jae-Sung Lee, Dong-Gyeong Lee, Seung-Ho Paik, Jin-gyu Kim; Heung-Min Son.
⛔️ Out: None.
👤 Head coach: Myung-bo Hong.

Mexico vs South Korea match prediction 10 September 2025
Mexico have been dominant in this fixture and have won three consecutive matches heading into this clash. However, that is not enough to convince the bookmakers who are expecting a closely contested battle. Despite that, I don't see them suffering defeat in this one.
Without a doubt, South Korea can push back against Mexico, but that won't be enough to secure a win. The visitors have managed to score in six of their last eight matches in this fixture, and I believe they can get on the scoreboard with their attack being led by Heung-Min Son. That said, support both teams to get on the scoreboard.
Our match prediction: Both Teams To Score - Yes for a coefficient of 1.83 in the Bet365 bookmaker.
Our betting tip on the match: Correct Score - 3:1 for a coefficient of 17.00 in the 1xbet bookmaker.
Our final betting tip on the match: Anytime Goalscorer - Heung-Min Son for a coefficient of 8.00 in the Betway bookmaker.
