The Estadio Defensores del Chaco in Asuncion hosts the clash between Paraguay and Peru, which counts for qualifying for the 2022 World Championships to be hosted by Qatar. Below you will find interesting details and statistics, but also a reasoned tip.
Paraguay
The last competition she participated in was the Copa America, in the summer of 2019.
Brazil, the team that would win the trophy, eliminated her in the quarterfinals, on penalties, in regular time the score was 0-0.
He has had 6 friendly matches since then, most of them with quite strong teams and has 2 victories, 2 defeats and as many draws.
He has not conceded a goal in the last 2 disputes and has scored only once.
He has lost 4 times in the previous 5 official home games.
Bruno Valdez underwent knee surgery and will be absent for this reason.
Otherwise, from the information I have, the former coach of Celta Vigo, Sevilla and Athletic Bilbao, the Argentine Eduardo Berizzo, has the whole team at his disposal and can line up the best first 11.
Peru
She also went to the Copa America last year and managed to reach the final.
But she lost in the last act, with 3-1 against Brazil, which also had the advantage that she organized this final tournament.
Since then she has been involved in 5 friendlies and has 3 defeats, all with 1-0, a draw and a victory.
In the last 5 official duels away from home he has a draw, 3 successes and one failure.
He conceded a goal in the previous 3 confrontations and in total he scored only once.
The veteran of the attack, Paolo Guerrero, but also Nilson Loyola and Raziel Garcia are injured.
Jefferson Farfan is uncertain because he felt knee pain.
Edison Flores, Alexander Callens and Yordy Reyna were not allowed by the clubs to come to their national team.
⚽Direct meetings
Peru has won previous 6 such meetings.
The most recent victories were 1-0, and that helps me in terms of betting predictions.
The last time in Asuncion was imposed with an improbable 4-1, but this is exactly what happened in November 2016.
⚽Paraguay vs Peru probable teams:
Paraguay (4-4-2): J. Fernandez – J. Escobar, F. Balbuena, G. Gomez, Arzamendia – Cubas, O. Romero, R. Sanchez, Villasanti – Lezcano, Almiron.
Peru (4-5-1): Gallese – Advincula, C. Zambrano, Abram, M. Trauco – R. Tapia, Aqui
Football Prediction of the Day Paraguay vs Peru
I face two teams that suffer on the offensive phase and that’s why I think it will be quite difficult to score.
But both have quality defenses, which are rarely exceeded and I expect this to happen late in the match and now, if necessary, because a 0-0 is not ruled out.
Paraguay looks good since Eduardo Berizzo came on the bench because he brought defensive organization and as proof in the last 2 games he did not receive a goal.
It comes after 5 confrontations in which he scored the earliest in the 43rd minute.
Peru has many absences and that is why it will most likely be extremely prudent to try to get at least one point.
Therefore, it will not risk much on the attack phase. In 5 of the last 6 duels her first success came after the 33rd minute.
Bet Tips: No goal before the 33rd minute
Odds: 1.90
