The USWNT will trade tackles with the Korea Republic Women's team in an international friendly fixture on Tuesday.

The South Koreans are using this game as part of their preparations for the AFC Asian Women's Cup which will kick off in January 2022.

USWNT vs Korea Republic Head-to-Head

The USWNT have five wins from their eight games against South Korea. The Asians are yet to win a game against the Stars and Stripes, while three matches, including the last two, have ended in a share of the spoils.

Their most recent meeting came last week when a defensively resolute South Korean side held on for a goalless draw.

That draw halted the USA Women's team's three-game winning run after being knocked out by Canada in the semifinal stage of the 2021 Olympics.

Korea Republic are also on a four-game unbeaten run with three wins coming before Friday's draw.
