Singapore vs Paraguay Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 13 November 2026
🔊 Singapore and Paraguay will open their November series of friendlies at the National Stadium in Kallang. As part of this international tournament, the hosts will also play Brazil, while Paraguay will face Japan after their match against Singapore. The gap in quality between the teams is considerable: Paraguay are 33rd in the FIFA rankings, while Singapore are 149th. The visitors beat Bolivia and Colombia in September and October without conceding a goal. The hosts, meanwhile, ended their previous tournament with a heavy defeat to Malaysia, so they face a tough test against a team involved in the 2026 World Cup play-offs.
First meeting between the senior national teams
📊 The available statistics show no previous meetings between the Singapore and Paraguay national teams. Their recent international results and the calibre of their opposition are therefore the basis for comparison. The visitors have a clear advantage here: Paraguay reached the round of 16 at the 2026 World Cup, where they lost 0-1 to France, while Singapore have yet to achieve comparable results on the international stage.
Singapore: heavy defeat to Malaysia and the need to bounce back
Gavin Lee's side head into the November matches after a disappointing ASEAN Cup campaign. In their last five matches, they have recorded two wins and three defeats. Singapore beat Thailand (2-1) and Bangladesh (1-0), but lost to Thailand again (1-3), Indonesia (0-2) and Malaysia (0-6). Over that run, the hosts scored just four goals and conceded 12. The heavy defeat against Malaysia was their biggest under Lee and their worst result against that opponent since 1978.
Singapore's home results, however, do not look quite so bleak. In their recent home matches, they beat Bangladesh and Timor-Leste and drew with Indonesia. Their problems are particularly evident against more organised and physically stronger opponents: they sometimes struggle to withstand the pressure throughout a match. Against Paraguay, the hosts will need to pay particular attention to their defending, as losing possession in central areas could lead to quick attacks from the visitors.

Paraguay: organised defence and World Cup experience
Gustavo Alfaro’s side are in much more convincing form. In June and July, they progressed through the World Cup group stage and knocked out Germany, but lost 1-0 to France in the round of 16. In the autumn, they extended their unbeaten run, first beating Bolivia 2-0 and then Colombia 1-0.
Alfaro’s side’s strength is their discipline without the ball. Paraguay are able to stay compact, prevent opponents from advancing freely through the middle and defend their penalty area fairly reliably. This was evident at the World Cup: they kept a clean sheet against Australia and remained just one goal behind France for a long time. Their autumn wins over Bolivia and Colombia also confirmed that the team have retained their defensive solidity after major tournaments.
Match Results: Paraguay
🟨 Yellow Cards Prediction
Paraguay's last ten matches have averaged four yellow cards per game across both teams. Five yellow cards were shown in each of the matches against Colombia and Bolivia. As this is a friendly, there is no need to play with maximum aggression, so a high total looks doubtful here. Let's consider Total Yellow Cards - Under 5.5.
⚽ Goals Prediction
Singapore have conceded 12 goals in their last five matches, and their heavy defeat to Malaysia clearly exposed how vulnerable their defence is under pressure. Paraguay, however, have a different profile: four goals in their last five matches, two consecutive clean sheets and just two goals conceded over the same period. The visitors are unlikely to force the issue recklessly, especially with a match against Japan coming up in four days. Singapore may be second best in terms of chance quality and possession, but Paraguay's statistics do not provide sufficient grounds to expect a heavy defeat. The preferred pick is Total Goals - Under 3.5. Odds - 1.77*.
🚩 Corners Prediction
In Paraguay’s last ten matches, the average combined number of corners was 9.7 per game, with the total going over 10.5 on only four occasions. The figures were noticeably affected by the matches against Germany and France, in which the opponents frequently put balls into Paraguay’s penalty area. Against Singapore, the pattern may be different: the visitors will probably have more possession, but with a comfortable lead they will not necessarily keep committing large numbers forward. Given the statistics, it is reasonable to consider Total Corners - Under 10.5.
*Odds are indicative and may vary by bookmaker.
⭐ Editor's Prediction
Paraguay are clearly superior to Singapore in terms of player quality and experience against strong national teams. The hosts can count on support from the stands, but their attack is unlikely to cause regular problems for the visitors' organised defence. Given the gap in quality and the South Americans' defensive reliability, it makes sense to back Singapore not to score. Final bet: Singapore to score no goals. Correct score prediction: 0-3.
