Match description

USMNT receives a significant home advantage and has better squad depth than Paraguay. Paraguay is uncomfortable, aggressive in duels and can slow the tempo, but our model shows a clearer edge for USMNT than the odds imply. Our probability distribution is USMNT 61%, draw 23% and Paraguay 16%. At odds of 2.00 the model sees EV of about +22.0%, so the price offers a real edge over our valuation. The risk is a nervous tournament start and that Paraguay performs well in matches where they do not have to dictate play. Status: BET.
