Colombia vs Paraguay Prediction and Betting Tips (26.03.2025)

Command Analysis

Colombia

Current form

Prior to the start of qualifying, the Colombian national team was among the main contenders for a direct ticket to the World Cup, having more than a solid squad to fulfill such an ambitious task. In general, the coffee makers have been conducting the selection process more than adequately and steadily until recently, gradually approaching their goal, but they sharply slowed down at the finish line. After losing 1-2 to Brazil in the last round, Nestor Lorenzo's team suffered its third defeat in a row and its fourth in the selection. Thus, Colombia is already sixth in the table, but a six-point gap from seventh-placed Bolivia leaves a decent chance of a direct ticket to the World Cup.

Disqualifications and injuries

Gomez, Cabal, Mosquera and Sanchez are injured.

Interesting betting trends

Paraguay

Current form

Before the start of the selection, the national team of Paraguay was not considered a clear contender for a direct ticket to the World Cup, but in general, the selection of players allowed them to set themselves the task of breaking into the top seven. For the first time in many years, the red and white are able to hold the tournament distance very evenly and they are very close to their goal, placing at the end of 13 rounds on the fifth line in the table with 20 points. Gustavo Alfaro's team is already seven points ahead of the seventh Bolivia, which does not guarantee anything yet, but allows them to play without unnecessary nerves. Having beaten Chile 1-0 in the last round, Paraguay extended its unbeaten qualifying streak to seven matches.

Tip and bets

1.85handicap (-1) on Colombia

The Colombian national team will obviously not be motivated after three defeats in a row – the gap from the seventh Bolivia is still decent, but so far it cannot guarantee anything. At home, coffee makers are traditionally very strong and have everything they need to break an unsuccessful streak and move up the table. Paraguay, despite its solid position in the selection group, has not won a single match in the current qualification, it is unlikely that this series will be interrupted in Barranquilla against an overly motivated Colombia, it makes sense to give preference to the hosts.

We believe that the guests have no chance. The betting tip is an Asian handicap (-1) for Colombia. This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.85

2.39Both will score

Bet on the total

The Colombian national team, without any doubt, will be determined only to win today and will certainly put a lot of pressure on the opponent's goal from the first minutes. It is unlikely that Paraguay, which is traditionally extremely vulnerable away, has a real chance of winning back today at zero, the Paraguayans regularly miss out on coffee. At the same time, the red-and–white team is also quite capable of scoring their own goal - the hosts, to put it mildly, are far from perfect in defense, Paraguay has very high-level players ahead, and the guests are quite capable of responding.

The bet is that both will score. This bet is offered for 2.39

Betting on corners

Colombia is the favorite and will probably spend most of the match attacking – the hosts should win confidently from the corners.

The bet is an Asian handicap (-3) on corners for Colombia. This bet is offered for 1.79
