Peru vs Brazil match preview

Brazil almost always finish top of the CONMEBOL World Cup qualifying table, and a victory in Lima would see them remain in first place, even after only two games.

On Friday night, the Seleção began this campaign in style, demolishing Bolivia 5-1 in Belém.

Rodrygo bagged a brace, Raphinha was on target and Neymar also scored twice at Mangueirão, goals that made him Brazil’s all-time top-scorer, surpassing Pelé’s record that had stood for over half a century.

Fernando Diniz is currently in interim charge of the five-times World Champions, in a bit of a dead-man walking role, as the CBF continue in their attempts to woo Carlo Ancelotti.

For now, while he’s in the job, all Diniz can do is win games, so will Brazil’s perfect start to qualifying continue?

As for Peru, they were delighted to hold Paraguay to a goalless draw in Ciudad del Este on Thursday, given that experienced right-back Luis Advíncula was sent off in first half stoppage time.

Now, following World Cup expansion, Juan Reynoso’s team will fancy their chances of qualification, although the fixture list has not been kind to los Incas, set to face Chile (A) and then Argentina (H) next month.

Brazil have won each of their last seven competitive meetings with Peru, most-notably prevailing 3-1 when the two met in the 2019 Copa América Final at the Maracanã.

So, will the away side leave Estadio Nacional de Lima with all three points?
