Match Preview
Japan last 6 outings resulted in 2 lose 4 wins , while having able to score atleast 1 goal in all of the last 6 outings
Paraguay last 6 outings resulted in 3 wins 2 lose 1 draw , while having able to score atleast 1 goal in 5 out of the last 6 outings
Japan qualified for this year's tournament after winning the 2024 AFC U23 Asian Cup in May , winning 6 out of 7 including slender victory over Uzbekistan in the final
Since that triumph , Japan have taken part in 2 friendly matches to prepare for the Paris games , beginning with a 2-0 Victory over USA on July 12 before playing out a respectable 1-1 draw with host nation Frace 5 days later
Paraguay beat Japan 4-3 in their opening group fixture at Athens 2004 and en route to the finals , where they suffered a narrow defeat 1-0 to Argentina .
However they came back with a better result while beating the likes of Argentina & Brazil to win the CONMEBOL Pre-Olympic tournament earlier this year to secure this spot for Paris 2024 .
Paraguay . who have advanced to the knockout stage in both of their previous 2 appearance at the Olympics , enter the Paris games after failing to win either of their warm-up matches this month
My Verdict
Both teams are stronger team that have potential in winning this match up , Paraguay have been a dark horse team that have claim the victory over previous gold medalist , while Japan being a regular in Olympics games , have been showing consistent result in their games . I will like to see this match being a narrow victory between this 2 teams . Paraguay coming in being a dark horse but having to face their toughest test in this Group 1st match up will be difficult for them . Statistics makes me think that Japan comes in well prepared from their friendly games and they way they play . So i will lean towards Japan in this 1st game . While Paraguay may be good , their prepartion warm up doesn't show that they are still well prepared to take on Japan yet .
My Pick : Japan - 0.5 FT
