Analysis

How it plays out

Both sides run a balanced system, so this becomes a test of who executes the same ideas better on the day. Paraguay's aggressive press (PPDA 14.2) against United States's deeper build-up (PPDA 27.7) creates a clear territory question: can Paraguay force errors high up, or will United States play through the press and find space behind it?

What decides it

Folarin Balogun carries the marginally higher scoring probability (10.7% vs 7.6%).

Off the pitch

Paraguay travel 8,987km, 3x United States's journey. Second-half fatigue is a real factor at that differential.

The angle

Likely the last World Cup for Tim Ream. Tournament experience at this level is hard to quantify but hard to replace.

Beyond the model

Ranked by likely importance. None of these feed the forecast: the probabilities rest on team strength, venue conditions and the style matchup.

  1. 1.Squad availability: 1 carrying a fitness doubt across the two squads, 1 of them projected starters. The forecast does not adjust for who is missing: its lineup channel currently contributes zero, so this is context the probabilities do not include.
Availability

United States

United States: 1 carrying a fitness doubt.

  • DoubtChristian Pulisic, the first-choice forward, is recovering from Calf injury and is a fitness watch item; if unavailable the projected XI shifts.

Paraguay

Paraguay come in at close to full strength.

What it means

Availability runs in Paraguay's favour here: United States are managing a fitness concern over Christian Pulisic, while Paraguay's projected XI looks intact.

The model's style-matchup analysis nudges the forecast −0.1pp toward a draw, versus the baseline team-strength prior.

Availability from the predicted squads and injury feed; forecast adjustments from the model's own decomposition. See /docs/methodology/.

Bu maç için yayımlanan olasılık, kadro onayında (başlama vuruşundan ≈1 saat önce) sabitlenir ve sonrasında güncellenmez. Maç sonrası değerlendirmenin hesap sorduğu sayı budur. Canlı bölümündeki canlı kazanma olasılığı ayrı, gecikmeli ve betimleyici bir tahmindir; yayımlanan tahminin yerini almaz.

Tam tahmin ve sonuç özeti →

Canlı olasılık nasıl çalışır. Yayımlanan maç öncesi tahmin, kadro kilidi anında (T-1s) dondurulur ve başlama vuruşundan sonra değişmez; maç sonrası değerlendirme bu dondurulmuş sayıyı sonuçla karşılaştırır. Maç sırasında gösterilen canlı kazanma olasılığı, aynı modelin mevcut skora ve kalan süreye göre yeniden okunmasıdır. Yaklaşık dakikada bir yenilenir, her zaman gecikmelidir ve betimleyici bir araştırma rakamıdır; bir şans oyunu ürünü ya da herhangi bir türde fiyat değildir.
