National soccer coach Dick Advocaat says his team is confident of facing any team in the World Cup next year.

Speaking to South Korean reporters Thursday in Leipzig, Germany, the Dutchman said he would most like to avoid the team's inclusion in the same group as his native Netherlands, but that South Korea is not afraid of anyone.

Soccer's world governing body FIFA on Friday in Leipzig will announce the group draw for next year's tournament in Germany.

Advocaat is one of four Netherlanders who will lead a team in the World Cup, joining Guus Hiddink of Australia, Marco Van Basten of the Netherlands and Leo Beenhakker of Trinidad and Tobago.
