The two teams faced off in an international friendly back in November of 2025, resulting in a 2-1 victory for the United States. Since that match, however, the US team has somewhat struggled, going 2-3 over their next five matches. They seem to have tightened up the ship as of late, defeating Senegal and losing to Germany by just one goal in their last two matches.
Paraguay, on the other hand, has gone 3-1 since facing the US, though they have not faced as tough of competition, but did manage to pull off an upset against Mexico in another friendly in November.
Total Goals Scored To Be Over 2.0 (-120)
The United States team will look to be aggressive and gain momentum early on with the support of their home crowd, which should give them a boost offensively. They’ve averaged 2.2 goals per game in their last six matches, including a two goal performance in their friendly against Paraguay.
Paraguay has not had as much sustained offensive success, averaging just 1.3 goals per game in their previous four games before their friendly against Nicaragua, where they scored four goals. They may be able to use some of that momentum coming into today’s game.
The two teams combined for three goals in their November meeting, which was played at Subaru Park in Chester, Pennsylvania with a crowd of just over 17,000 people. Tonight’s match will be played at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, which seats over 70,000 people, over four times as many fans.
Expect the US team to feed off of the electricity in the stadium and score multiple goals to cover the line at legal sports betting sites.
