Argentina receives Paraguay for the third match of the 2026 Qualifiers. Follow this match LIVE on Movistar TV!
A new presentation of the current world champion is coming. This Thursday, October 12, matchday 3 of the South American Qualifiers will have the clash between Argentina and Paraguay at Estadio Mas Monumental in Buenos Aires.
The team led by Lionel Scaloni continues with a great performance: after winning the Qatar 2022 World Cup, they started in the best way in the 2026 Qualifiers with two victories against Ecuador (1-0) and Bolivia (3-0). A brilliance from Lionel Messi in the debut and a great collective work in La Paz allowed them to reach 6 points.
Meanwhile, the Paraguayan team will present a new face from the bench. The APF decided to dispense with the services of Guillermo Barros Schelotto, who had a negative record with the 'Albirroja'; now, Daniel Garnero, with extensive experience in Paraguayan football, takes charge of the team and will debut against his own country.
The statistics show, to the surprise of many, a slight advantage in favor of Paraguay over Argentina. In the last 10 official matches between them in the Qualifiers, Paraguay won 3 times, Argentina won 2 times, and they drew 5 times. When Argentina was the host, there were 3 draws, with one victory for each team. The last Argentine victory was on September 7, 2012 (3-1), while the last Paraguayan victory was on October 11, 2016, by 1-0.
