Predictions and forecasts for Colombia vs. Paraguay
Colombia triumph: 1.65 to 1 (-154)
Colombia has accumulated eight consecutive wins and 23 games without losing since February 1, 2022 and among those records there is a 2-0 against Paraguay in November 2022 and a 1-0 against Paraguay as a visitor in November 2023. The coffee team should win in Houston this Monday, if it maintains its recent level, against a Paraguay that in the last 18 months only defeated lesser teams: Nicaragua, Bolivia and Panama.
James Rodríguez will finish on goal: 2.10 to 1 (+110)
At the club level, James Rodríguez has not stood out for a long time (in fact he was sidelined by Sao Paulo, a team where he has not played since the end of April), but with Colombia’s 10 he is transformed: the captain has a stellar role as driver of the attacks of the team and, although this year he did not score goals for the national team, he did score shots on goal against rivals such as Spain and the United States.
Owner of a great punch, it is possible that the former Real Madrid will put Paraguay in trouble this Monday and the odds of 2.10 to 1 (+110) merit a try.
