As excitement builds for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Paraguay will use this lone friendly clash with Nicaragua as preparation for the grandest stage in world football. The match set to be played at Estadio Defensores del Chaco sees our prediction leaning towards a home win in a low-scoring affair. The last meeting between the two sides witnessed Paraguay come out on top in a 2-0 home victory.
The Paraguayans are heading to North America for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. This marks their first appearance in the competition after a 16-year absence.
Los Guaranies finished sixth in the FIFA World Cup Qualifiers - CONMEBOL table, tied on 28 points with fifth-placed Brazil.
Preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup have not been smooth sailing for Gustavo Alfaro's men, who have won just two of their last six warm-up matches (D1, L3). Their most recent match was a 2-1 away defeat to Morocco on March 31st.
Nicaragua finished at the bottom of Group C of the FIFA World Cup Concacaf qualifiers with four points. They won't be taking part in this year's competition.
La Azul y Blanco have undergone two friendly games since their 2-0 defeat against Haiti in the Concacaf qualifiers in November 2025.
In their recent match, they did the impossible, holding South Africa to a goalless draw away from home, which extended their winless run to three games.
