Venezuela vs Paraguay Prediction, Tips & Prediction

Venezuela vs Paraguay
South America World Cup Qualifiers
Date: Tuesday, October 13, 2024
Starts at 23pm UK
Venue: Mérida Metropolitan Olympic Stadium.

Both Venezuela and Paraguay missed their targets in the opening game of WC Qualifiers last weekend, so this head-to-head is an opportunity to get it right.

In addition, both teams have not achieved a significant playoff result for some time, due to not participating in Russia 2018. Winning one of the five tickets for 2022 would be a huge success.

In terms of odds, the home team are favorites to win with a current quote of 2,50, while the chances of the visitors to win are slightly lower, 3,10.

Venezuela vs Paraguay Prediction

Venezuelan fans had high hopes after a string of great results last year, where their team defeated Bolivia, Trinidad and Japan consecutively. The first leg of the tie did not go well, losing to Colombia 3-0, in a match that had no control. Coach José Peseiro can make some changes for this next game. The end result was a problem, conceding three goals in the first half.

As for their opponents, Paraguay were favorites at home against Peru, but the match ended without a 2-2 FT victory. It was a shame for them to concede the second goal at 85. Overall, Ángel Romero had a great day, scoring two goals. We expect an open game in Mérida this Tuesday, so backing both teams at 1,95 seems like a good choice.
