Jordan football has been on the rise in the last year or so, having reached the final of AFC Asian Cup earlier this year, before finishing on top of their second-round group with 13 points from six outings, notably ahead of Saudi Arabia on goal-difference.
Jamal Sellami's side, who are aiming to make their maiden appearance at the FIFA World Cup, started the third round of qualification with a 1-1 home-draw against Kuwait on September 5. Five days later, the Chivalrous Ones secured a 3-1 away win against Palestine thanks to Yazan Al Naimat's brace and one goal from Noor Al-Rawabdeh. The result extended their unbeaten run to nine games in all competitions, recording six wins in the process.
South Korea, on the other hand, are aiming to qualify for their 11th consecutive World cup finals. Taegeuk Warriors dominated their second-round group, finishing in first place with 16 points from six games. However, they began their third-round qualifiers with a disappointing goalless draw against Palestine.
Nevertheless, Hong Myung-bo's side got the better of Oman 3-1 in Muscat last time out. Hwang Hee-chan opened the scoring inside the first ten minutes before Son Heung-min and Joo min-kyu netted late goals to secure all three points.
South Korea have struggled in their recent encounters with Jordan, drawing 2-2 in the 2023 AFC Asian Cup group stage before losing 2-0 in the semifinals.
