Eduardo Berizzo saw his side fall short of a second win of their qualifying campaign, but he will no doubt have taken something from their loss as he looks to bolster his side’s increasingly unlikely prospects.
A debut for striker Luis Amarilla up front last time suggests he could clock up consecutive caps as Los Guaranies welcome their rivals for what is shaping up to be a vital encounter.
Predicted Paraguay starting XI: Silva; Espinola, Balbuena, Alonso, D. Martinez; Morel; A. Romero, H. Martinez, Sanchez, Arzamendia; Amarilla.
Reinaldo Rueda will rue the fact his side could not seize three points in their first game of the international break, pinned back late on in a game punctured by drama – but his side have an immediate chance to course-correct now.
Los Cafeteros handed a debut to Andres Andrade at the ripe age of 32 against Bolivia and he could be rewarded with another cap this weekend.
