On Saturday evening, we have a great game to look forward to as Paraguay take on France for the chance to reach the quarterfinals.
Paraguay caused a huge upset in the last round as they beat Germany on penalties after finishing the game 1-1. France had a much easier path as they beat Sweden 3-0 in what was a comfortable game for them.

Paraguay vs France Tips
Here are our top three World Cup betting tips and the best free bets ahead of this game.
Tip 1: Over 2.5 goals & both teams to score
Paraguay have had a great World Cup despite the awful start that they had, losing 4-1 to the USA. After that they clearly made a big effort to fix their defending, and it resulted in a 1-0 win against Turkiye and a 0-0 draw with Australia.
That meant they finished third in their group, but it was good enough to qualify and shock Four-time World Cup winners Germany in the last 32. They showed just how well they can defend and caused a huge shock that saw them win on penalties.
However, now Paraguay must take on a much harder task as they must face France who are looking very good. The French breezed through the group stage with wins against Senegal, Norway and Iraq.
They then had another great performance against Sweden in the last 32, beating them easily 3-0. Kylian Mbappe has looked great with six goals so far but it’s the whole team in general that has been impressive.
Expect Paraguay to struggle against this French side that have a blistering attack and strong defence.
Tip 2: Ousmane Dembele to score anytime
We’re not sure whether USA’s Captain America is fit enough to start this one, but it’s more than likely that Christian Pulisic will take to the field at some point in this game.
The AC Milan forward is the biggest threat for the Stars and Stripes, and with 33 goals in 88 international appearances is usually one of the shorter prices to find the net.
He’s yet to score at the World Cup — providing an assist in the USA’s 4-1 romp over Paraguay — so will be looking to make a big impact one way or another on Thursday.
If the USA are leading at the end of the match, Pulisic’s pace will be a frightening prospect as Bosnia and Herzegovina start committing men forward.
Tip 3: Julio Enciso 1+ shot on target, Diego Gomez to be shown a card & Ousmane Dembele to score anytime
Julio Enciso has been Paraguay’s most effective player going forward throughout the whole of their World Cup campaign. The former Brighton player has had the most shots for Paraguay with eight. He has only had one hit the target, but he can always come up with something special.
Diego Gomez is a yellow card waiting to happen. The Brighton midfielder committed 48 fouls in 26 starts for the Seagulls last season, which saw him get nine yellow cards. He has started in all three of Paraguay’s group games and saw two yellow cards, meaning he missed the last 32 game. He is back now and it would be surprising if he doesn’t pick up another one.
Finally, add Ousmane Dembele to score anytime. The PSG forward has scored four times already in this World Cup, and with defenders focusing on Kylian Mbappe, he could get enough space to score.
