Paraguay have scrapped through to the next round with four points while Germany won their first two games and suffered shock loss to Ecuador in group stages. Germany had a great start to the tournament with 7-1 win over debutant Curacao and sneaked 2-1 win against Ivory Coast. However, they fumbled against Ecuador after taking early lead and exposed chinks in their armour. 

Striker Kai Havertz will have to lift his game to sneak through the resolute Paraguay defense. Deniz Undav has come from the bench in all three games and has scored three goals for them. Talented Liverpool midfielder Florian Writz and Jamal Musiala will be key in the central positions to make strikers job easier. Veteran goalkeeper Manuel Neuer didn't had a good game against Ecuador and he will be keen to make mends.

Paraguay has been traditionally defense heavyside but they conceded four goals in the first game against hosts USA and could score just one. However, they bounced back to keep clean slates against Turkey and Australia in the next two games. 

Their impressive 1-0 win over Turkey and goalless draw against Australia was enough to see them through to the knockouts. Migel Almiron, Omar Alderete and other players will be looking to repeat what Ecuador did and become the fourth South American side to defeat Germany in a World Cup game.
