Group H will pit stars like Cristiano Ronaldo, Luis Suarez, Heung-min Son, and Thomas Partey against each other. The presence of Ronaldo’s Portugal has certainly generated tremendous buzz around this group.
This edition of the FIFA World Cup will be the swansong of the 37-year-old Ronaldo. Fans are hoping that the talismanic Portuguese can revel in World Cup glory this time around. The high-stakes clash between Uruguay and Portugal will be the highlight of this group.

However, South Korea can emerge as the dark horse of this group. South Korea stunned Germany in the last World Cup and the Asian giants have the ability to cause a few upsets. The Taegeuk Warriors will rely heavily on Son Heung-Min, but they cannot afford to be a one-man team.
