Japan vs Paraguay prediction
With an impressive squad, Japan qualified for the 2026 FIFA World Cup with absolute ease in the third round of AFC qualifying, which concluded over the summer. They have a very impressive squad and will seek to go better than their round of 16 exit at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
They now face a Paraguay side that have some really exciting emerging talent such as Diego Gomez and Julio Enciso. Under the management of former Ecuador and Costa Rica boss Gustavo Alfaro, they will want to repeat their impressive performances at the 2010 FIFA World Cup, the last time they qualified.
Paraguay have some exciting players for the counter-attack and Japan are brilliant to watch in terms of their quality so both teams scoring would be a good bet.
Japan vs Paraguay tip: Both teams to score
