Paraguay, returning to the World Cup after sixteen years, carries the traditional South American fierce spirit. Gómez leads the defense, while Nsiiso and Almirón form the attacking double core, specializing in high pressing and set-piece bombing. The qualification from the group stage hinges entirely on the outcome of this match.

Cape Verde, making their first appearance on the World Cup stage, is considered the biggest dark horse of this tournament. A small country with a population of over 500,000, they forced a draw against Spain with a full-team 5-4-1 bus tactic. 40-year-old goalkeeper Vozinia repeatedly makes incredible saves, demonstrating the team's defensive resilience and counterattacking at opportune moments to catch opponents off guard.
An old South American powerhouse faces an African dark horse in a fortress-style battle. One side must fight hard for points to secure a spot in the knockout stage, while the other aims to earn points to lock in qualification. An intense battle of offense and defense leaves no room for error—every shot and every block determines the fate of both teams.
