Paraguay vs Brazil Predictions

• Brazil have kept clean sheets in their last three qualifiers, which have all produced under 2.5 goals.
• Three of Paraguay’s last four qualifiers have generated under 2.5 goals.
• Only 11 goals have been netted in Paraguay’s five qualifiers so far.

Brazil are a perfect five from five in qualifying thus far, but Tite’s side will have to work hard to maintain their 100% record when they face off against Paraguay in Asuncion this week.

Sunday’s comfortable 2-0 home victory over Ecuador extended Brazil’s lead at the top of the CONMEBOL standings to four points, and even at this early stage, it looks inevitable that the five time World Cup winners are going to sail through to Qatar 2022 well clear of their rivals.

Wednesday’s tie in Asuncion presents Tite’s charges with a stern test though, as Paraguay are unbeaten in the campaign thus far (W1, D4).

Los Guaranies toughed out a goalless stalemate in Uruguay at the weekend to stay in fourth spot and the objective here will be to take another point against South America’s best side.

We think Brazil may just edge this via a 0-1 score-line, but under 2.5 goals rates a better bet than backing the visitors in the match betting.

Brazil’s last three qualifiers have produced under 2.5 goals, with the same applying also to three of Paraguay’s last four outings. The hosts have seen just 11 goals netted in their five qualifiers so far and they’re an incredibly difficult outfit to break down.

The Paraguayans main aim will be to stifle their superior opponents here, while Brazil will most likely be patient and wait for their chance to strike. The probable pattern of the game and recent stats certainly point towards a low scoring affair in Asuncion, with the favourites gaining a narrow verdict come full time.
