Argentina Preview

• Thanks to their strong start in the CONMEBOL qualifiers, Argentina finds itself in a comfortable position. However, a slight dip in form, especially on the road, is not entirely surprising. The Albiceleste have managed just one point in their last three away games, including a recent loss to an in-form Paraguay side in Asunción, despite taking an early lead in that match.
• That said, fans in Buenos Aires remain confident, as the reigning world champions have shown remarkable consistency on home soil. In their last 11 home qualifiers, Argentina has secured nine wins, keeping a clean sheet in 10 of those matches.

Projected Argentina Lineup:

• E. Martínez (GK), Molina, Balerdi, Otamendi, Tagliafico, De Paul, Fernández, Mac Allister, Lo Celso, Messi, L. Martínez

Peru Preview

• Peru faces a steep uphill battle, with their qualification hopes dwindling rapidly. Scoring has been their biggest weakness, as they’ve managed only three goals in 11 matches—making a turnaround seem highly unlikely.
• In their most recent outing, Jorge Fossati’s team settled for a goalless draw against a struggling Chile side, a result that epitomizes their season. If Peru hopes to challenge Argentina, they will need a drastic improvement, especially with the hosts expected to come out firing.

Projected Peru Lineup:

• Cáceda (GK), Corzo, Araujo, Callens, Polo, Sone, Cartagena, Peña, Advíncula, Valera, Lapadula

Key intelligence:

• Recent analysis suggests Argentina might deliver a strong performance against Peru in Buenos Aires, especially after their recent loss to Paraguay. Lionel Messi and his teammates are poised to bounce back with determination.
• Argentina’s recent track record supports optimism, with 10 of their last 11 matches ending with fewer than 3.5 goals scored. Meanwhile, Peru has struggled, securing only one win in their previous eight games and failing to score in seven of their last ten outings.
• Historically, Argentina has dominated this matchup in World Cup qualifiers, remaining unbeaten in their last 18 encounters with Peru (12 wins, 6 draws). Peru’s last victory against Argentina came in June 1985, with a 1-0 win on home soil.
• When playing at home in qualifiers, Argentina has further cemented their superiority, winning seven and drawing three of their last ten meetings with Peru. Impressively, they have kept clean sheets in their previous four World Cup qualifiers against this opponent.
• Peru’s recent form in qualifiers paints a bleak picture: just one win in their last 12 matches (5 draws, 6 losses) and failing to find the net in nine of those games. Additionally, they’ve lost all four of their recent away qualifiers and haven’t scored in any of their last seven World Cup qualifiers played outside Peru.
