Venezuela vs Paraguay betting predictions by Pundit Feed

Venezuela hosts Paraguay in round 2 of the CONMBOL 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers. The following are the best three predictions for the game by Pundit Feed:

Under 2.5 goals

In the first Venezuela vs Paraguay prediction, we are tipping a low-scoreline. This hasn’t been a high-scoring encounter going by the H2H stats. For example, in the last 7 meetings between Venezuela and Paraguay, 6 games had under 2.5 goals outcome.

We also note that the hosts failed to score in round 1 of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers after losing narrowly in a 1-0 defeat to Colombia. On the flip side, Paraguay settled for a barren draw against Peru in round one. Thus, while both sides are not doing well offensively, we expect their good defending to show yet again in this round 2 clash.

Both teams to score –  No

The next prediction for Venezuela vs Paraguay is a bet on the team to score. We emphasize that both Venezuela and Paraguay are struggling to score goals. Moreover, 4 out of the last 6 meetings ended with goals on only one end of the pitch, an outcome we expect in this first meeting of 2023.

Under 9.5 corners

In another Venezuela vs Paraguay prediction, our bet is on the match goals. Thus, on the overs/unders corners betting market, we are backing at most 9 corners in this game, so our final tip for the 2026 CONMEBOL World CUp qualifiers pitting Venezuela against Paraguay is under 9.5 corners.

Venezuela vs Paraguay fixture preview

This will be the first meeting between Venezuela and Paraguay in two years. The last encounter was in September 2021, a COMMEBOL 2022 World Cup qualifier that Paraguay won 2-1 at home. Interestingly, Paraguay won both legs of the 2022 World Cup qualifier clashes with Venezuela.

However, with odds of 2.80 for a home win and 2.75 for an away victory, this is expected to be a highly competitive encounter.

Both teams have failed to score after round one, so while the offensive prowess of the two sides are unpredictable for now, we expect a strong defensive showing on matchday. With that, this should be a low-scoring encounter.
