Paraguay vs Brazil Prediction and Betting Tips | 10th September 2024
The CONMEBOL World Cup qualifiers feature another set of matches this week as Paraguay lock horns with an impressive Brazil side in a crucial encounter at the Estadio Defensores del Chaco on Tuesday. Both teams have been inconsistent this year and have a point to prove in this game.
Paraguay vs Brazil Preview
Brazil are in fourth place in the CONMEBOL qualification standings and have struggled to hit their stride over the past year. The Selecao edged Ecuador to a narrow 1-0 victory in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this week.
Paraguay, on the other hand, are in seventh place in the league table and have failed to meet expectations in their campaign. The home side played out a 0-0 stalemate against Uruguay last week and will look to take it up a notch in this fixture.

Paraguay vs Brazil Prediction
Brazil have an exceptional squad at their disposal but have flattered to deceive over the past month. Vinicius Junior has been surprisingly ineffective for the Selecao and will need to prove his mettle this week.
Paraguay can pack a punch on their day but will be up against a bonafide South American powerhouse on Tuesday. Brazil are the better team on paper and should be able to win this game.
Prediction: Paraguay 1-2 Brazil
