Paraguay and Bolivia will be hoping to pick up their first win of the 2026 CONMEBOL World Cup qualifiers when they face off at the Estadio Defensores del Chaco on Tuesday.
Paraguay are eighth in the group standings with one draw and two losses against their name. Bolivia have fared worse and are rock bottom with three defeats from their first three matches.
Nicolas Otamendi scored the only goal of the game in Paraguay's most recent outing which was a defeat at the hands of Argentina. Bolivia had a difficult start to their qualifying campaign with losses to Brazil and Argentina. In the third game, they lost to Ecuador 1-2 and they will face an uphill task against Paraguay as well.
