Philadelphia Stadium hosts a blockbuster Round of 16 clash on 4 July as Paraguay, fresh from stunning Germany, take on tournament favourites France. Les Bleus, priced at 1.20<\/a>, carry devastating firepower into this knockout tie. A repeat of the iconic 1998 golden goal encounter, this promises to be a gripping contest with a World Cup semi-final berth at stake.<\/p>

\n 1.20<\/a><\/span>\n on Dafabet\"Dafabet\"<\/span>\n · Confidence High<\/span>\n <\/div>\n

Projected final score: 0-3<\/h3>

France are overwhelming favourites here, and 1.20<\/a> reflects a side that has scored 13 goals<\/strong> in five matches while conceding just two. Paraguay’s Cinderella run relied on a penalty shootout against Germany, and with Enciso and Alderete both doubtful, their already-limited attacking threat of 1.5 xG across four matches is further diminished against the tournament’s most clinical side.<\/p>

A high-scoring French performance is the logical outcome given their record of netting 3+ goals in every World Cup match this tournament, a historic first. Paraguay’s defence has been stretched by lesser attacks, and with Mbappé and Olise in elite form, N\/A suits a contest where the South Americans are unlikely to find a way through France’s organised backline.<\/p>

Match Analysis<\/h2>

France arrive at this Round of 16 fixture as overwhelming favorites, priced at 1.20<\/a> and backed by the most dominant attacking record in this tournament. Deschamps’ side have been relentless, conceding just twice across four matches.<\/p>
