Peru vs Chile Prediction and Betting Tips | November 15th 2024
Peru will welcome Chile to the Estadio Monumental in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers on Friday. Both teams have one win apiece in the qualifying campaign thus far and will need to avoid losses in their remaining games to keep their qualification hopes alive.
La Bicolor registered their first win of the campaign last month, defeating Uruguay 1-0 at home. They failed to build on that form and suffered a 4-0 away loss to Brazil in their previous outing.
The visitors are winless in their last seven games in all competitions, suffering four consecutive defeats. They played Colombia in their previous outing and fell to a 4-0 loss, failing to score for the sixth time in the qualification campaign.

Peru vs Chile Prediction
La Blanquirroja have endured a poor run of form recently, with just one win in their last seven games, failing to score in five. They have suffered two losses in their last 11 home games in the World Cup qualifiers, with one coming against Brazil and the other against Argentina.
Pedro Gallese, Carlos Zambrano, and Bryan Reyna will miss this match due to the accumulation of yellow cards. Renato Tapia has been dropped out of the squad due to an injury and Jorge Murrugarra has been called up as a replacement.
La Roja have suffered five consecutive defeats in the World Cup qualifiers and will look to improve upon that record. They have just two wins in their last 20 away games in the World Cup qualifiers, which is a cause for concern.
Darío Osorio, Erick Pulgar, and Marcelo Morales have been ruled out for the trip to Lima. Arturo Vidal and Erick Wiemberg were called up as replacements and should start here.
Considering the current form of the two teams and their goalscoring form in the World Cup qualifiers, they are expected to settle for a draw.
