Game Prediction
On Friday night, the European teams will be joined by their “colleagues” from America. The CONMEBOL region began the qualification for the World Cup back in September, and is now preparing for the 5th round. Chile will host Paraguay as part of it. The specialists of the website took a closer look at this pair and prepared a prediction for the match on November 17, 2023.
Chile continues to disappoint
“La Roja”, after several appearances in the play-offs of the World Cup and two consecutive victories at the Copa America, suddenly plunged into crisis. Still, Alexis Sanchez and the company remained only the spectators at the World Cup both in 2018 and 2022. Despite the poor results of the previous qualifying round (19 points in 18 matches, which resulted in 7th place), Eduardo Berizzo remained in the coach position. And the results with this mentor have again been extremely modest so far. The team won only in the battle against Peru at the home arena, and a little earlier it tied in the struggle with Colombia on the same field – 0-0. It is reasonable to mention that everything started with an away 1-3 score in the match against Uruguay. And the previous round brought a 0-3 defeat made by the eternal outsider, Venezuela.
Paraguay made fairly expected results
“The Guarani” were pleasantly stable at the turn of the century. Then, they consistently qualified for the world cups, starting from 1998, and they did their best in 2010 when they reached the quarter-finals. After that, the team constantly lost the competition in qualifying, and it got 16 points in the previous cycle, being ahead only of the eternal outsiders, Venezuela and Bolivia. Now, it also started in a mediocre way: a goalless draw at the home arena was followed by the failures not only to Argentina, but also to the Venezuelans. And only the home confrontation with another underdog, the Bolivians, thanks to the only goal of Sanabria, gave the opportunity to “snatch” the victory.
Previous head-to-head matches
All 3 previous matches, including in 2021, were won by the Chileans; the last qualification brought 2-0 and 1-0.

The Chileans do not shine, but their opponent is clearly a failure. Everything can be decided, most likely, in favour of the hosts, by means of the very first goal – we are waiting for “total: under 2.0” (odd: 1.86).
