18 May, 2018 in Korea, Asia Rugby Championship, Malaysia, News, ARC by Asia Rugby

With less than 48 hours to go until the fourth match of this year’s Asia Rugby Championship Top 3, both sides have been named.

In Korea’s second successive home match they face Malaysia who are on their travels for the first time after losing both of their home matches.

The first meeting between these sides ended 35-10 to Korea on the opening weekend, and you can watch this game live on Asia Rugby’s Facebook page.

For hosts Korea, head coach Choi Chanryul makes seven changes to the side that lost to Hong Kong 30-21 with five changes in the forwards.
