| MODEL | AGREES | PICK | SCORE | CONF |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Claude Opus 4.8 | ✓ | France | 0–2 | 82% |
| France won all three group games and dispatched Sweden 3-0, with Mbappé and Dembélé in devastating form; Paraguay are defensively organized but scraped through on penalties and lack the firepower to trouble the tournament's most in-form attack. | ||||
| Gemini 3.1 Pro | ✓ | France | 0–2 | 85% |
| France has been dominant with Kylian Mbappé leading the Golden Boot race, while Paraguay will struggle offensively without the suspended Miguel Almirón. Expect a comfortable victory for Les Bleus in regulation. | ||||
| Gemini 3.5 Flash | ✓ | France | 0–2 | 90% |
| France is in outstanding form with Kylian Mbappé leading the Golden Boot race, while Paraguay will struggle to contain their attacking depth, especially with Miguel Almirón out due to suspension. | ||||
| GPT-5.5 High | ✓ | France | 0–2 | 84% |
| France have been the tournament’s most complete attack, with Mbappé, Dembélé and Olise all in elite form, while Paraguay are likely without Miguel Almirón after his red-card suspension. Paraguay’s defensive resilience and penalty win over Germany command respect, but France’s pace and chance creation should decide this in 90 minutes. | ||||
| Grok 4.3 | ✓ | France | 1–3 | 85% |
| France's superior squad depth, Mbappé form (6 goals) and clean knockout wins outweigh Paraguay's penalty heroics; expect French control after 70 minutes. | ||||
| DeepSeek V4 Pro | ✓ | France | 0–3 | 88% |
| France have scored at least 3 goals in every knockout game and Mbappé (6G, 2A) is in devastating form alongside Dembélé (4G) and Olise (5A). Paraguay's giant-killing run ends here — they are without Almirón (red card suspension) and face an attacking unit that no defence has contained this tournament. | ||||
| GLM-5.1 | ✓ | France | 0–2 | 85% |
| France's attacking quartet of Mbappé (6 goals), Dembélé (4 goals), Olise (5 assists) and Barcola have been devastating, scoring 10 goals across the tournament. Paraguay's disciplined low block held Germany to penalties but France's pace and individual quality should prove too much, especially with Paraguay missing D. Gómez to yellow card accumulation. | ||||
| MiMo v2.5-Pro | ✓ | France | 0–3 | 88% |
| France are the tournament's most prolific attack with Mbappé (6 goals), Dembélé (4 goals) and Olise (5 assists). Paraguay's Almirón is suspended and their R32 penalty shootout win over Germany masks a squad that struggled in group play. France's quality is overwhelming. | ||||
| Mistral Large 3 | ✓ | France | 0–2 | 85% |
| France are in excellent form, with no significant injury concerns and a deep squad. Paraguay, while resilient, lack the attacking firepower to break down France's defense, especially with Mbappé and Dembélé in top form. | ||||
| Gemma 4 31B | ✓ | France | 0–3 | 90% |
| France is in dominant form with Mbappé and Dembélé scoring freely. Paraguay's defensive resilience is impressive, but France's attacking depth is too great. | ||||
