Germany vs Paraguay Stats – Match Statistics Overview
Germany own the clearest numerical edge before kickoff. FOX lists Germany at 3.3 goals, 2.2 xG, 17.7 shots, and 67% average possession per game. Those figures show a team that can create volume and keep the ball long enough to test a deep block.
Paraguay’s public profile points to a lower-control game model. FOX lists Paraguay at 0.7 goals, 0.5 xG, 7.3 shots, and 38% average possession per game. That gap makes defensive spacing and set-piece execution more important than open-play volume.

Attacking Stats Comparison
Germany’s attacking leaders show depth across the front line and midfield. FOX lists Deniz Undav with three goals, Joshua Kimmich with two assists, and Kai Havertz with four shots on goal and 1.7 xG. That split gives Germany more than one route into the penalty area.
Paraguay’s attack is more concentrated. FOX lists Matias Galarza with one goal, Julio Enciso with two assists, and Mauricio with three shots on goal and 0.4 xG. Paraguay need those few attacking moments to carry more value than their average shot volume suggests.

Defensive Stats Comparison
The goals-against line is level at 1.3 per game, but the defensive shape behind it differs. Germany defend with more possession and higher territory, which can reduce pressure but expose space behind midfield. Manuel Neuer carries a 12 keeper save marker and no clean sheet in the public leaders.
Paraguay defend deeper and lean more on Gill. FOX lists Orlando Gill with a 23 keeper save marker and two clean sheets. Gustavo Gomez also leads Paraguay’s rating marker at 6.7, which fits the need for penalty-area control against Germany’s shot volume.

The chance-creation gap is even larger. Germany average 14.3 chances created, while Paraguay average 4.3. That difference shows why Paraguay must reduce central entries and avoid repeated defensive phases around their box.

Key Player Statistics
Undav leads Germany’s scoring data with three goals, while Havertz leads the shot-quality markers with 1.7 xG and four shots on goal. Kimmich’s two assists give Germany a midfield service line behind those attackers. Waldemar Anton’s 7.7 rating marker also shows Germany have defensive contributors in the public leaders.
Galarza gives Paraguay their scoring reference, and Enciso supplies the main creative line with two assists. Mauricio has Paraguay’s top shot-on-goal and xG markers, while Gill’s two clean sheets make him central to the underdog plan. Paraguay need those leaders to keep Germany from turning pressure into early goals.
| Player | Team | Key Data |
|---|---|---|
| Deniz Undav | Germany | 3 goals in FOX leaders |
| Joshua Kimmich | Germany | 2 assists in FOX leaders |
| Kai Havertz | Germany | 4 shots on goal, 1.7 xG |
| Matias Galarza | Paraguay | 1 goal in FOX leaders |
| Julio Enciso | Paraguay | 2 assists in FOX leaders |
| Orlando Gill | Paraguay | 23 keeper save marker, 2 clean sheets |
Expected Goals Analysis
The xG comparison strongly favours Germany. Germany sit at 2.2 xG per game, while Paraguay sit at 0.5. That gap shows Germany have built better shot locations and more repeat threat across the group-stage sample.
Paraguay can still keep the match close if they lower Germany’s first-half xG and turn set pieces into shots. Germany need patient circulation because forcing early shots from distance would help Paraguay. The full-time update should separate open-play xG, set-play xG, shot locations, and goalkeeper saves once the official match feed closes.
