Paraguay
Paraguay arrives at the 2026 World Cup with 8 appearances in the FIFA World Cup and a best historic result of cuartos de final. It belongs to the CONMEBOL (South America) confederation and currently sits at #42 in the FIFA ranking, which places it as a national team with a regular international presence. In the 2026 World Cup draw it was placed in Group D alongside Estados Unidos (#15 FIFA), Turquía (#27 FIFA), Australia (#23 FIFA). On paper, this is a highly demanding group, with sides firmly established in the international landscape. Estados Unidos stands out as the group’s benchmark by ranking, while Turquía closes the section at #27. Paraguay is one of the 6 South American representatives at the 2026 World Cup, the first edition expanded to 48 national teams. Reaching the round of 16 looks like the first major sporting target for Paraguay at the 2026 World Cup.
