Norway and Paraguay aren’t listed among the U20 World Cup heavyweights, but one of them will be in the quarter-finals. The two nations face off in the round of 16 after advancing from their specific groups. Read on for our prediction of the match.
Paraguay’s four points in Group B were enough to deliver them to this stage. The furthest they’ve ever gone at the U20 World Cup was finishing fourth, back in 2001.
Straight from a 2-1 loss to Ukraine in their last group game, Paraguay will be keen not to fall to another European side. Before Ukraine, they had suffered a 6-2 defeat against Russia the last time they faced a European team.
Norway started their journey here on a winning note, beating Nigeria 1-0 in a tight contest. The ensuing two matches were even tighter, leading to draws with Colombia (0-0) and Saudi Arabia (1-1).
That extended their run of not scoring many goals, though it has been a rather stable period for the Norwegians. In the last five matches, they haven't tasted defeat but have only managed to score three goals.
Eight of Norway U20’s last 10 matches produced under 2.5 goals, and they have only lost twice. The winner in this match will book a quarterfinal ticket to face either Japan or France.

Our Paraguay -20 vs Norway -20 Prediction
Paraguay’s record against European nations is not a really impressive one. They have suffered three straight defeats against such opponents, and the most recent was at this same competition—in their latest match. That is a record to excite Norway, who are coming here on a much more stable run compared to their South American opponents.
The downside for Norway is that they haven't been scoring a lot of goals. However, with only one goal conceded in five matches, Norway has been tough to break. Our prediction for Paraguay U20 v Norway U20 is for Norway to win and under 2.5 goals.
