France takes on Paraguay this Saturday with the ambition of continuing their flawless run in this 2026 World Cup.

With four wins in four matches, Les Bleus booked their ticket to the round of 16 by dominating their group, then swept aside Sweden (3-0) in the round of 32. Kylian Mbappé and his teammates go into this clash as heavy favorites, propelled by an attack that has already netted 13 goals in the competition.

On the other hand, Paraguay had a bumpy group stage, finishing third before qualifying as one of the best third-placed teams. The Guaranis then pulled off an upset in the round of 32, knocking out Germany on penalties (1-1, 4-3) after a tense encounter under the guidance of coach Gustavo Alfaro.

This showdown also rekindles a vivid memory for both nations. Back in the 1998 World Cup, at this same stage, France defeated Paraguay (1-0) thanks to Laurent Blanc's golden goal in extra time, before marching on to their first world title.
