Paraguay vs Argentina Prediction and Betting Tips (15.11.2024)

Command Analysis

Paraguay

Current form

With the arrival of a new head coach, Paraguay game has been transformed. Let us recall that after Daniel Garnero was fired due to an unsuccessful start to the qualifying round and the summer America Cup, his place was taken by Argentine specialist Gustavo Alfaro. Under the new coach, the team played four matches, winning twice and drawing twice.

What is remarkable is that the composition has not changed dramatically, but the results have become much better.
