Uruguay vs Paraguay Prediction & Betting Tips - World Cup
by Joseph King in World Cup Predictions
The seventh of 18 scheduled matchdays for the CONMEBOL World Cup qualifying campaign sees second-place Uruguay hosting seventh-placed Paraguay on Friday evening. Let’s break down this match between La Celeste and Los Guaraníes.
Uruguay’s total of 13 points sees them just two points behind leaders Argentina. Paraguay are currently occupying the intercontinental playoff spot and sit two points behind sixth-place Brazil for automatic qualification.
The good times continue to roll for Uruguay boss Marcelo Bielsa. A solid showing in the Copa America saw them finish third after a penalty shootout victory over Canada. The tournament raised Marcelo Bielsa’s record to 11 wins, one draw and three defeats in 15 matches in charge of La Celeste.
Uruguay have qualified for four consecutive editions of the World Cup, with their last failed appearance coming in Germany 2006. They’re expected to qualify once again this time around with many fans and experts tipping them to battle Argentina for the top spot.
Paraguay, on the other hand, are very much on the opposite side of the coin. They failed to claim a single point in their Copa America campaign, losing all three matches by a combined score of 8-3.
Their last appearance was the final group stage game of the Copa America, where they suffered a 2-1 loss to Costa Rica after conceding twice in the opening 10 minutes. It was also the last game in charge for former manager Daniel Garnero, who was sacked following the disappointing tournament.
La Albirroja have now managed just a single win in their last eight appearances, drawing twice and losing five.

Our Uruguay vs Paraguay Prediction
Uruguay are a perfect three for three on home soil in this competition, which included an impressive 2-0 win over Brazil back in October of 2023. With this match also being a send-off to all-time record goalscorer Luis Suárez, expect the hosts' tails to be up from the first whistle.
One thing that has been true of all Marcelo Bielsa coached teams: goals are to be expected. The hosts therefore should be able to take advantage of a reeling Paraguayan team that arrive in Montevideo on a really tough run of form. Our Uruguay vs Paraguay prediction: Uruguay team total over 1.5.
