Match statistics (USA vs Paraguay):

Paraguay's recent form has been troubling, with their last match resulting in a loss, marking their only fixture so far this season. They have yet to secure a win, and their defensive vulnerabilities were evident as they conceded four goals. With 13 days of rest since their last match, they should be well-prepared, but the absence of injuries or suspensions does not alleviate the pressure on them to perform better in this upcoming clash.
