Eight of Paraguay's 30-man Copa America squad are Europe-based, with six of those among the forward options for Ramon Diaz.
Goals have been a rare commodity for Paraguay of late, held scoreless in four of their past seven outings and winning just once in that run.
They do pack some in-form goal sneaks, however, with Trabzonspor's Oscar Cardozo (15 goals), Montpellier's Lucas Barrios (11) and Augsburg's Raul Bobadilla (10) prominent in the Super Lig, Ligue 1 and Bundesliga respectively this term.
Olimpia centre-back Saul Salcedo, 17, is a potential debutant having featured eight times in the Under-20 side, putting more experienced central defenders Paulo da Silva (35) and Marcos Caceres (29) on notice.
