It’s hard to look past the World Champions in this matchup, and I believe they will also maintain a clean sheet. Argentina has been on a winning streak, securing victories in their last six consecutive matches while managing to keep their defence unbreached. On the other hand, Paraguay is traveling to Argentina with a struggling offensive record, failing to score in three of their last five games.

Argentina will field their top players, Lionel Messi (if fit), Julian Alvarez, and Lautaro Martinez, all of whom are in exceptional form in their domestic leagues. In contrast, Paraguay have recently appointed a new head coach, Daniel Garnero, who has a strong track record as a club coach in his home country, but he couldn’t have a harder start.

One of Paraguay’s concerns is the lack of experience in their squad. While their defence has significant international experience, their three goalkeepers selected have a combined total of just two international appearances. In midfield, eight players have fewer than 10 international caps, and up front, only Newcastle’s Miguel Almiron and Torino’s Antonio Sanabria have more than 5 appearances out of the six forwards named.

Considering these factors, it seems like a safe bet to predict Argentina to win without conceding any goals. To enhance the odds, you might consider adding a couple of Paraguay cards to the bet, as they have been averaging two cards in their last ten games, including two sending-offs.

In other betting advice, the International Break system shows three players most likely to be booked.
