3. Paraguay (CONMEBOL)
Total WC appearances so far – 8
History – Last time in South Africa, Paraguay were really good. They qualified top of their group, knocked out Japan in the Round of 16 and fought bravely against Spain in the Quarters losing only by a single goal. 2010 was the fourth consecutive appearance for Paraguay in the World Cup finals.
Qualification Scenario – 9 CONMEBOL teams (except Brazil) play each other twice, the top four teams after that get automatic entry and the fifth placed team gets a playoff spot.
Trending
Where they lie now – At the bottom of the qualification table with only 2 wins from 12 games.
Chances of qualification – Absolutely none whatsoever. With only four more games to go, there is no way that Paraguay could get a spot at the next year’s World Cup at Brazil.
