Paraguay vs Australia — Prediction 2026-06-26
Paraguay and Australia meet in FIFA World Cup group stage action on June 26, 2026 (02:00 UTC). For Paraguay, this represents a return to football's biggest stage after a lengthy absence, while Australia's Socceroos carry the momentum of their 2022 Qatar campaign — their most recent World Cup appearance — into this fixture.

Head-to-head
Head-to-head data for Paraguay vs Australia is not available in the current dataset.
