USA vs Paraguay Prediction, Odds & Statistics
Our Poisson-based model projects 2.07 expected goals for USA and 1.03 for Paraguay, a combined total of 3.10. That distribution gives USA the largest share of the 1X2 market at 61%, with the draw at 21%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 60% for over 2.5 goals and 56% for both teams to score, with 2–1 the single most likely scoreline at 10%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 61% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

Prediction conclusion
The model's leading selection is USA win, at 61.3%. Its single most likely scoreline is 2–1.
It puts both teams scoring at 56% and over 2.5 goals at 60%.
A 61% selection is expected to miss in the remaining share of matches, and football regularly produces red cards, injuries and tactical changes the data cannot see. Treat this as a probability, not a forecast of the result.
