Slovakia vs. Paraguay – Score prediction (13.10.2019)

Overview.

After being held by Wales 1-1 in their last match, Slovakia now face Paraguay for their sixth international friendly since March 2018 (W2, D2, L1). Sitting second in their European Championship qualifying (ECQ) group behind rivals Croatia, Slovakia may be looking for a low-intensity affair here. Winning three of their last five home matches (all competitions/friendlies: D1, L1), Slovakia have gone into the break as losers in their last three matches here but only lost one (W1, D1, L1). Despite those two second-half recoveries, Slovakia have still nonetheless conceded six of their last nine home goals in the second period – three of which came in the seven minutes directly after half-time.

Paraguay travel here with just two wins from their last 14 matches (D5, L7 – within 90 minutes), whilst just four of those fixtures across this period produced over 2.5 total goals. Dropping out of Copa América 2019 in the semi-finals, Paraguay have now lost ‘to nil’ in two of their last three friendlies (W1). Despite scoring over 1.5 goals in just five of the 14 aforementioned matches, Paraguay did score in both halves to win the last H2H 2-0 (WC 2010). However, Paraguay have just one cleansheet from their last 13 international friendlies, shipping over 1.5 goals in six of such matches.
