Paraguay will take on Colombia in the CONMEBOL World Cup qualifiers at the Estadio Defensores del Chaco on Tuesday.
Paraguay will be looking to climb up the table and convert draws into wins. They have just one win in their last five games and have scored just one goal during this period.
Colombia ended a run of three consecutive draws with a win over Brazil in their most recent outing. Gabriel Martinelli scored the opening goal in that game but Luis Diaz's brace in the second half helped Colombia grab all three points.
