Main Match Prediction
The two teams might not deliver too many goals and that leads us to bet Under 2.5. This selection could be the way forward, especially with odds of +106 available.
Paraguay are a defensively minded side who both score and concede few goals. With everything at stake against a Germany team that are favourites to progress, we expect La Albirroja to sit deep, keep things tight and play counter-attacking football.
Given Paraguay's limited attacking options, we are not expecting fireworks in this Round of 32 contest.

Germany vs Paraguay Odds
The odds and lines below are updated regularly and may differ from the prices shown in our picks, which are captured at the time of publication.
Bettors might not get rich backing Germany at -286 to triumph in this World Cup clash although these odds suggest a 74% probability that the favourites end up triumphing. Paraguay are trading at a much larger price than their opponents and the outsiders can be backed at +850.
There is -102 available if you want to back Germany -1.5 on the Asian Handicap. This might appeal to bettors who think that they can overcome Paraguay by a two-goal margin or bigger.
Over 2.5 Goals is trading at a shorter price than Under 2.5 Goals right now. If you’re anticipating that one team or more will draw a blank, then the No option on the Both Teams to Score market is chalked up at -139.
