[(Peru) Strength]:

2. Peru won 4 of the last 5 games in AH with a good trend.

[(Peru) Neutral]:
1. Peru currently sit penultimate in the World Cup qualification (CONMEBOL) and have already been eliminated from contention for a top-six direct qualification spot. However, they still retain a mathematical chance to compete for the 7th-place playoff berth.
2. In June's World Cup qualifiers, Peru received two successive draws. They drew 0-0 against Colombia and Ecuador.
3. Peru have had no BTTS in their last four games, in a similar style to the home team.

[(Peru) Weakness]:
1. Peru's offensive performance in the current qualifiers has been highly disappointing, with only 6 goals scored in 16 games — the lowest among all 10 teams in World Cup qualification (CONMEBOL).

[Tips]:
Uruguay have yet to secure a direct qualification spot, making a full three points their clear objective in this home game against lower-ranked Peru.

The squad selection features all key players, ensuring fighting ability is not a concern.

While Peru recently managed consecutive draws against Colombia and Ecuador, their offensive record in the qualifiers remains the weakest (only 6 goals in 16 games), and such luck is unlikely to hold consistently.

According to the current odds in AH Market, we expect the favorites to win this game.

[Recommended]:
Uruguay (-1.5)
