Japan vs Paraguay Prediction & Betting Tips - Men's Olympic Tournament
by Sridhar in Men's Olympic Tournament Predictions
Olympic football regulars Japan starts their quest for a medal with a group game against Paraguay. This Group D match of the tournament will be played at the Matmut Atlantique Stadium in Bordeaux on Wednesday, with the prediction of a tight match likely.
The other two teams in this group are Mali and Israel, both of whom are in rich form and can be tricky. That puts the onus on these two teams to win here and start their quest to qualify for the knockouts on a good note. Japan are in their eighth successive Olympic games, so they know a bit or two about this competition. Unfortunately for them, star players Takefusa Kubo and Zion Suzuki didn’t join the side after Real Sociedad and Parma prevented them, respectively.
Japan reached the Olympics after defeating Uzbekistan in the AFC U-23 Asian Cup final. Paraguay earned their ticket to Paris by winning the CONMEBOL Pre-Olympic Tournament. However, their form since then has nosedived, causing a bit of concern. A 2-1 defeat to the Dominican Republic, followed by a 4-1 thrashing at the hands of the France U23 side, indicates the amount of work to be done to compete in the group.
Paraguay’s last appearance in the Olympics was in Athens 20 years ago, when they finished as runners-up to Argentina. Interestingly, in that edition, Paraguay defeated Japan 4-3 in the opening match.

Our Japan vs Paraguay Prediction
2 Goals Ahead Early Payout Offer
One of the worst feelings when placing a football bet is when the team that you have backed has gone into a multiple-goal lead only to be clawed back to a draw or to lose the game in question. This is something that bet365 has rectified for their bettors courtesy of this offer. If the team that you backed takes a two-goal lead your bet will be paid out as a winner. That is any two-goal lead so 2-0, 3-1, 4-2 etc will all be paid out early as a winner if your team is in that position. This is available in 80 different competitions including the major leagues across Europe and can be played on the full-time result market. Singles and multiples are both valid for this offer but you cannot bet on enhanced price markets. As with most promotions, if you cash out a bet in full, the bet will no longer be available for the offer in question. It also cannot be used if you bet on the draw on a game.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
