Comes off bench in win Paredes played the final half hour or so of Wednesday's 2-0 World Cup victory against Poland.

Impact Paredes did not impress as a starter in the Matchday 1 defeat to Saudi Arabia last week and has since been benched in favor of first Guido Rodriguez and then Alexis Mac Allister and Enzo Fernandez. Paredes still seems to be one of the first options to call upon off the bench, but he is unlikely to break back into the XI in midfield unless there's an injury in front of him.

Comes off the bench in Verona game Paredes (thigh) had one interception, one cross (one accurate), and one chance created in Thursday's 1-0 win versus Verona.

Impact Paredes saw limited action in his return from a thigh problem, and his playing time is unlikely to grow much in the final game before the World Cup, especially considering the recent good showings of Nicolo Fagioli and Fabio Miretti. He has recorded two off-target shots, three chances created, five crosses (two accurate), and three tackels (one won) in the last five appearances.

Out with thigh strain Paredes is expected to miss 15 days with a low-grade thigh strain, his club announced Saturday.

Impact Paredes will return for the final few games before the World Cup so long as he sticks to the two-week schedule set out for him. With just one start in his last four appearances that only went until halftime, Paredes hasn't played a major role in recent weeks. Adrien Rabiot, Manuel Locatelli and Weston McKennie should continue to start in midfield while Paredes is unavailable.

It's his first helper, while he has logged seven chances created, ten crosses (two accurate), nine tackles, and seven interceptions in four games. Juventus will visit Monza Sunday.

Impact Paredes gets on the board immediately with his first major contribution of the season. The arrivals of Vitinha and Renato Sanches though are expected to seriously cut into his playing time and it'll be hard to trust him to continue on that streak.
