Paraguay vs Colombia Prediction

Paraguay have some interesting players in their squad. Attacker Antonio Sanabria was in the books of Barcelona and Roma during the start of his career, and the 27-year-old has since then enjoyed spells at clubs like Real Betis and Genoa, before joining Torino. He scored 12 goals in the league last season for the Italian side.

Forty-year-old Oscar Cardozo has been named in the squad as well. The striker enjoyed a prolific spell at Benfica and continues to be a consistent goalscorer for Club Libertad these days.

Colombia, on the other hand, have a strong squad. Liverpool attacker Luis Diaz scored a brace against Brazil recently, while James Rodriguez continues to be involved in the national team setup. Yaser Asprilla is a talented youngster who has been linked with clubs like Newcastle United and Brighton & Hove Albion. If the latter are interested, then the 19-year-old is surely a player to keep an eye on.

Fiorentina center-back Yerry Mina, Al Sadd midfielder Mateus Uribe and Crystal Palace midfielder Jefferson Lerma have also been called up.

Colombia will be confident after beating Brazil, and should win here.
