On Saturday, June 29, in the second round of the Copa América 2024 group stage, Brazil will face Paraguay in Las Vegas. Predictions and betting tips for this match have been prepared by the analysts at Dailysports.
Paraguay
The Paraguayan national team is going through difficult times. The “Guaraní” have missed the last three World Cups and are at risk of missing the 2026 World Cup as well. Paraguay is currently in 7th place in the qualifiers, with only 5 points from 1 win and 2 draws. However, the 7th place now offers a spot in the intercontinental playoff.
Paraguay started their Copa América campaign with a setback. In the first round, Daniel Garnero’s team conceded two goals to Colombia in the first half and struggled to turn the match around after the break. Paraguay’s star, Julio Enciso, managed to score one goal, but the team still lost 2-1.
Brazil
Brazilian head coach Dorival Júnior is facing significant criticism. Even the legendary Ronaldinho declared he would no longer watch Brazil's matches before the Copa América 2024 began. Had he watched the game against Costa Rica in the first round, he would have been deeply disappointed. The five-time world champions controlled possession and created numerous chances but failed to score, while the Costa Rican goalkeeper put on an extraordinary performance.
Brazil's problems began even before the Copa América 2024. They have had a dismal start to the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, winning only 2 out of 6 matches and earning 7 points. Moreover, Brazil lost their last three qualifiers: Argentina (0-1), Colombia (1-2), and Uruguay (0-2). As a result, the “Seleção” is in sixth place.
Interesting facts about the match and head-to-head history
- This game will be the 84th encounter between Brazil and Paraguay.
- Brazil has won the last four matches against Paraguay.
- Throughout history, Paraguay has defeated Brazil 13 times, while the “Seleção” has 50 victories.
Paraguay vs Brazil prediction
The Brazilian team not only needs to win this match but also score as many goals as possible. My bet is that Brazil will score more than one goal.
