KOR vs JPN Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Hockey Tips & Playing 11 Updates for FIH Hockey Men’s World Cup – January 17th, 2023

Korea will be up against Japan in the 15th match of the FIH Men’s Hockey World Cup 2023 at Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneswar on January 17.

The Korean team failed to impress in their first game of the tournament as they were thrashed 5-0 by the defending champions Belgium.

With this humiliating loss, they have slipped to the bottom place in Pool B points table with a goal difference of -5. The team needs to forget this loss and play as a combined unit in the upcoming games.

Meanwhile, Japan too made a disappointing start to their World Cup campaign as they lost 3-0 against Germany in their opening fixture. They are currently third in the Pool B points table with a goal difference of -3.

The team need to make a strong comeback in the next game as another loss might knock them out of the tournament.
