Paraguay vs Argentina: Where to watch in USA and UK | 2022 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers
The international break features a set of FIFA World Cup qualifiers this week as Argentina lock horns with Paraguay on Thursday. Argentina have grown in stature under Lionel Scaloni over the past year and hold a distinct upper hand going into this qualification clash.
Paraguay have punched above their weight in recent months but have largely been inconsistent in their qualification campaign. The home side edged Venezuela to an important 2-1 victory last month and will want a similar result from this match.
Argentina, on the other hand, have been exceptional under Lionel Scaloni and have managed to end their trophy drought this year. The Albicelestes are unbeaten in their last 22 matches and will rely on Lionel Messi to pull off another magnificent spectacle on Thursday.
