PREVIOUS MATCH

With 21 points and fifth in the standings, Peru has the imperative mission of winning the albirroja team as a local to be able to take half the world cup ticket and face an Asian team in June for a quota to Qatar.

Although the numbers are partially in their favor, the white and red will only have to win to qualify directly to the repechage, but in case of a draw they will have to wait until Colombia (20) does not beat Venezuela at home, and for Chile (19) not to do the same against Uruguay in Santiago.

The Inca national team is one step away from keeping their second consecutive repechage and trying to reach a World Cup again, always under the baton of Argentinian Ricardo Gareca.

Let us remember that Peru qualified for the World Cup Russia 2018 defeating New Zealand in the repechage after 36 years of absence from the event.
