Prediction: 1-1
Paraguay
Estadio Nacional Julio Martínez Prádanos will be the centre of attention when Chile and Paraguay take on each other in an eagerly-awaited friendly on Wednesday morning. Chile suffered a 3-2 loss to France in their last warm-up game and, no doubt, they are desperate to grab something from the Paraguay clash. Experienced duo Gary Medel – Arturo Vidal has been omitted, but Inter ace Alexis Sanchez made the cut.
La Albirroja, on the other hand, head into the match following a goalless draw with Peru. Veteran Jose Paolo Guerrero has been left out of the squad, while Brighton forward Julio Enciso is widely expected to return to the starting XI. Anyhow, we believe that there is a big value in betting on under 2.5 goals as Paraguay should continue relying on their rock-solid defence. In their last meeting on the international stage the two sides played out a goalless draw.

Los Guaranies are the part of CONMEBOL confederation vying for glory at the international scene since 1919 and their debut loss to Argentina 5-1. Paraguay are regular participants at the Copa America winning the tournament on two occasions thus far, most recently in 1979.
They came close to glory in recent editions of the tournament as they fell short in the final of 2011 to Uruguay, while they finished fourth in 2015. The most successful period of the Paraguay national team came under Argentine coach Gerardo Martino, who took Paraguay to the quarter-finals of the 2010 FIFA World Cup for the first time in history. Following the 2010 success, Paraguay failed to qualify for their fourth successive FIFA World Cup finals as they have also missed out on the third consecutive global championship held inside their own continent.
