THE PREDICTION

A narrow 1-0 win for New Zealand over South Korea in their opening group game puts them in an excellent position heading into this clash with Honduras. Currently pointless after losing to Romania, the onus is very much on Honduras to push bodies forward consistently in an attempt to cause problems for a solid Kiwi defence. However, of the two teams on the pitch it is New Zealand who boasts the most natural goalscorer in Premier League striker Chris Wood. The Burnley star proved the difference vs South Korea and it would be no surprise if he was to be so again in this match, leading his side to a second successive victory in the process.
