The Peruvian team is just three days away from making its debut in the 2026 qualifiers and faces Paraguay in its first game at the Antonio Aranda Encina Stadium in Ciudad del Este. The Bicolor will play in this sports stadium for the first time and will be hoping for a win before facing Brazil in Lima, a game for which ticket prices for the second date of the qualification process have already been announced. With less than 76 hours until the duel between the two teams, the possible eleven that the Guaraní team would field for the game had been determined.
Without Julio Enciso, Paraguay’s young star, the Paraguayan press is pinning its hopes on Miguel Almirón and Palmeiras defender Gustavo Gómez. Both the midfielder and the defender are firmly anchored in Guillermo Barros Schelotto’s scheme. Although “Twin” has some doubts about the composition of his team, this is the formation that the Argentine strategist would send:
Santiago Rojas; Robert Rojas, Gustavo Gómez, Fabián Balbuena, Blas Riveros; Miguel Almirón, Mathías Villasanti, Andrés Cubas, Ramón Sosa, Romero Gamarra; Gabriel Avalos.
