Peru and Chile open their Copa America quest against one another. This battle of two experienced and formidable teams should bring plenty of passion, yet not so much excitement in terms of goals scored.
Before Betting on Peru vs. Chile
Great news for Peru is that they have maintained an unbeaten streak in their last four encounters. Two draws and two victories have undoubtedly elevated the squad’s morale, even though the contenders were not some notable teams, with all due respect.
They secured a routine 2-0 victory over Nicaragua and a strong 4-1 triumph over the Dominican Republic. However, they also faced a 1-1 stalemate with Venezuela and a goalless draw against Paraguay. All these matches were held in Lima, which raises questions about their performance away from home. Only one of the past nine games was with over 2.5 goals.
On the other hand, La Roja has had a dismal run in their World Cup qualifier games, securing just one win out of six matches. They also lost three matches and recorded two draws. Alarmingly, Chile failed to score in four of these fixtures.
However, there was a glimmer of hope during recent friendly internationals, where Chile managed to net eight goals across 270 minutes of play. They secured a 0-3 victory over Albania, narrowly lost 3-2 to France, and capped off the friendlies with an impressive 3-0 win against Paraguay.
Peru vs. Chile Head to Head
Peru and Chile last faced off in October 2023 during the World Cup qualifiers, with La Roja hosting and winning 2-0. There is a pattern when it comes to efficiency here, with the most recent six ending with 2 or 3 goals and the last five seeing only one team find the back of the net.
