Peru vs Uruguay: Predictions and Betting Tips

Peru

The Copa America did not go badly for Peru, as they reached the semi-finals where they lost to Brazil, ultimately finishing fourth after losing to Colombia.

The World Cup qualifiers are not going well for Peru as they are last in the standings, with four points, and having conceded 14 goals in six games.

Peru’s last win against Uruguay was in 2017.

Uruguay 

In a Copa America where much was expected of the Uruguayans, they reached the quarter-finals and suffered a disappointing elimination at the hands of Colombia. In terms of squad, the Uruguayans are probably the third best team after Brazil and Argentina, and very close to Colombia and Chile.

Uruguay has been one of the countries that has been disadvantaged by the decision by some European leagues to not let players play with their national teams outside Europe. Indeed, almost all the best Uruguayan players are playing in Europe.

Of the last ten encounters with Peru, Uruguay has only lost twice.

Key Stats:

• Two wins, one draw, and two defeats for Peru in their last five games
• Three consecutive defeats for Peru in their last three home games
• Two wins, one draw, and two defeats for Uruguay in their last five games
• Uruguay have only conceded two goals in their last five games

Peru vs Uruguay Predictions

Both Peru and Uruguay are not at their best level right now. Uruguay have struggled to score goals lately, although defensively they have been very good, while Peru have struggled both offensively and defensively. Despite Uruguay lacking many of their key players, we think that they are capable of beating Peru away from home.
