When compared, paramagnetic has a higher spin pairing repulsion than diamagnetic. conversely, high crystal field splitting energy in diamagnetic causes the electrons to be forced together in lower state energy orbitals.
Metal-ligand combination to favor the octahedral geometry but may vary in the low spin and high field complexes.

Dear student 
octahedral complexes will be favoured over tetrahedral ones because: It is more favourable to form six bonds rather than four. The crystal field stabilisation energy is usually greater for octahedral than tetrahedral complexes.
Hpe this helps 
Good Luck
