Peru vs Chile prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups - November 16, 2024
One of the matches in the 11th round of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers will take place on Friday in Lima, where Peru will host Chile. Here's a prediction with solid chances of success.
Match Preview
Peru sits in 9th place in the standings after 10 rounds, having earned just 6 points. The team recorded its only victory against Uruguay in the previous round, alongside three draws and six losses. Most recently, they suffered a heavy 0-4 defeat away to Brazil. After a poor start, Peru has struggled to find any consistency. Their attack has been utterly ineffective, scoring only 3 goals throughout the tournament, the lowest in South America. The players often fail to create dangerous moments, and when opportunities arise, they are seldom converted.
Chile, currently at the bottom of the table, has won only one match and suffered 7 losses, the most in the tournament. In the first half of the qualifiers, Chile managed to collect a few points, but the second half has been a disaster, marked by a five-match losing streak. In the latest round, they were defeated 0-4 away to Colombia. The final scoreline doesn’t fully reflect the match, as goalkeeper Cortés saved the team at least five times, preventing the score from being even more embarrassing. Defensive and attacking issues are becoming more evident. Defenders appear shaky, losing their positions, failing in duels, and often leaving goalkeeper Bryan Cortés to face the opposition alone.
Probable Line-ups
- Peru: Gallese, Abram, Zambrano, Araujo, Cayens, Peña, Castillo, Sonne, Polo, Flores, Valera
- Chile: Cortés, Galdames, Maripan, Kuschievic, Loyola, Echeverría, Pavez, Valdés, Vargas, Osorio, Dávila
