Head-to-head statistics Republic of Korea - Taiwan
Republic of Korea Team Overview
South Korea have yet to win, but their offence has been productive. They scored 12 runs in their previous two games, showing they can regularly put runners on base and create scoring chances. Pitching remains the main problem, with their pitchers allowing opponents to score 17 runs. Lee Ro Un, who spent most of the season as a reliever, is set to start against Chinese Taipei. South Korea need to be more reliable defensively, as another poor start could seriously complicate their bid for victory.

Taiwan Team Overview
Chinese Taipei bounced back from their defeat to Japan with a comeback win over Australia. They conceded four runs in the first inning but gradually took control and won 6-4. The result kept Taiwan’s hopes of reaching the final in good shape. Xu Xiangsheng will be the starting pitcher. This season, he has pitched 31 innings for the Yakult Swallows’ second team in Japan, recording a 2.61 ERA. For the national team to succeed, though, they will need not only a reliable outing from their starter but also timely use of their relief pitchers.

⭐ Editor's Pick
We expect a high-scoring game, as both teams have already shown they can create scoring opportunities. South Korea have scored 12 runs in two games, but their pitchers have struggled under pressure from opponents so far. Chinese Taipei have also shown they can hit effectively, as their successful comeback against Australia demonstrated. Given South Korea's defensive problems and both teams' need to fight for a win, we expect plenty of attacking play from both sides. Our pick is Over 8.5 Runs.
