Colombia vs Paraguay: betting odds 26 Mar 2025
Betting tips 26 Mar 2025
Paraguay leapfrogged Colombia in the standings after the last round, edging ahead by a single point into fifth place. But with this clash taking place in Barranquilla, the hosts have a perfect opportunity to reclaim their position – and they'll be fully aware of how vital three points are at this stage of qualifying.
Colombia were seconds away from a precious point in Brazil before a late Vinícius Júnior thunderbolt and deflection condemned them to a 1:2 defeat. That loss saw them slide behind both Brazil and Paraguay. Colombia remain a formidable side on home soil, having picked up 13 of a possible 18 points in this campaign at home. Their only slip-up came against high-flying Ecuador (0:1), who currently sit second in the table.
Paraguay continue to be the embodiment of pragmatism – tight at the back, conservative in attack, and remarkably difficult to break down. Their seven goals conceded are bettered only by Ecuador’s five. The team edged past Chile (1:0) last time out, in a match that perfectly reflected their gritty style. But away from home, Paraguay have scored just two goals in six matches – five of those featured under 2.5 goals, and three finished goalless.
Even with Colombia’s relatively productive attack (16 goals so far), breaking through Paraguay’s deep block will be a serious challenge. These sides played out a 0:0 draw in the previous cycle, and another low-scoring contest seems likely here.
