In that game, Paraguay managed 21% possession and 7 attempts on goal with 2 on target. The scorer for Paraguay was Matías Galarza (2'). At the other end, Turkey got 32 shots at goal with 5 of them on target.

Prediction
Looking at these two teams, we feel that Australia should get enough chances to find the net against this Paraguay side, although it isn’t expected to be as many as they’ll concede.
We’re going for a narrow 2-1 winning score for Paraguay by the conclusion of the game. Let’s wait and see how it plays out.
