Team news & rosters
| Position | Bolivia roster |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers | Lampe, Cordano, Jairo Cuellar, Gutierrez, Sandy |
| Defenders | Bejarano, Jose Sagredo, Haquin, Jusino, Fernandez, Quinteros, Jesus Sagredo, Enoumba, Reyes, M. Alvarez, S. Alvarez, Barbery, Barbosa, Guzman, Prieto, Rodriguez, Vaca, J. Velasco |

Bolivia record its second win of the qualifying campaign last time out, but still only has nine points, making qualification for the World Cup very unlikely.
A win over Paraguay will boost its chances, but Bolivia will have to do without Henry Vaca after he was sent off against Peru.
Predicted Bolivia starting XI: Lampe; Ramallo, Jusino, Enoumba, Sagredo; Fernandez, Justiniano, Saucedo, Arce; Algaranaz, Moreno.
| Position | Paraguay roster |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers | Silva, Aguilar, Ortiz |
| Defenders | Gomez, Alonso, Caceres, Balbuena, Arzamendia, Rojas, Alderete, Escobar |
| Midfielders | Romero, Sanchez, Vilasanti, Angel Cardozo, Alejandro Romero, Gimenez, Morel, Florentin, Martinez |
| Forwards | Oscar Cardozo, Perez, Almiron, Angel Romero, Sanabria, Samudio, Gonzalez, Enciso, Amarilla |
Paraguay is still within touching distance of a play-off place, sitting just three points behind Colombia at the moment.
Bolivia vs Paraguay has been won by the home team or ended in a draw every time in the past 10 years, so Paraguay will need to reverse that trend to move closer to Qatar.
Omar Alderete will play no part after being sent off in the defeat to Chile last time out.
Predicted Paraguay starting XI: Silva; Rojas, Gomez, Balbuena, Arzamendia; Morel, Lucena; Romero, Almiron, Perez; Cardozo.
