Paraguay vs Argentina Preview

Paraguay have been experiencing a rather slow start in their previous seven games this year. In that period, they have lost three, won two, and drawn the other two games.

Argentina, on the other hand, are experiencing an excellent run of form, having won four of their previous six matches, with their only loss coming against Colombia in the qualifiers. They are backed for another win against Paraguay.

Head to Head

Argentina are currently leading the head-to-head by a small margin. The world champions have won six of their previous 16 meetings, while Paraguay have won three.

This translates to a 37.5% win rate for Argentina, which supersedes Paraguay’s 18.75% win rate.

The fixture has ended in a tie seven times.

Paraguay Form

Gustavo Alfaro’s side ranks 55th in the world and currently sits in 6th position having garnered 13 points out of 10 games in the FIFA World Cup Qualifiers.

They have won only three and lost three games, drawing the rest.

One of their most daring comebacks was their 1-0 win against Brazil in Round 8, where Diego Gomez scored in the 20th minute.

Earlier this year, Brazil had beaten them 4-1 in the Copa America, making them the underdogs in the second meeting.

La Albirroja have scored and conceded the least amount of goals in the qualifiers and have an impressive record of goalless draws.

In the qualifiers, Paraguay’s wins have come at home, while they have struggled for form in their away games.

Paraguay Team News

La Albirroja will rely on important players like Miguel Almiron and Diego Gomez. But they will miss their young attacking midfielder, Hugo Cucena due to a calf muscle tear in October.

Argentina Form

Lionel Scalioni’s side have scored 19 goals and conceded just five in the qualifiers and they currently top the table with 22 points.

Argentina have won seven of their ten games with two losses to Colombia and Uruguay.

Their most emphatic victory was their 6-0 win against Bolivia in the qualifiers, where Lionel Messi scored his tenth international hat trick.

Argentina Team News

Lionel Scalioni added young talents like Nico Paz, Enzo Barrenechea, and Facundo Buonanottee to cover for dropped-off talents, including Marcos Acuna, Paulo Dybala, Marcos Senesi, and Alan Varela.

There are no injury reports for Argentina.

Verdict

Paraguay v Argentina

Argentina are having an interesting run of form in the qualifiers, winning seven of their 10 matches and scoring 19 goals in the process. Paraguay’s overall form has been poor but their strength lies in their defence and home games. I'm still backing Argentina.
