Brazil vs Peru Tips

Tip 1

This bet has landed in each of the pair’s last four meetings, with Brazil most recently dispatching their Peruvian counterparts 1-0 in last month’s World Cup qualifier.

Peru have been shut out in five of their last eight outings, including their last three qualifiers, with Jorge Fassati’s men scoring just three goals across their nine matches.

Although Selecao have been far from their brilliant best during the 2023-25 qualifiers, they are still lightyears ahead of their opponents whose injury list is incredibly alarming in relation to their chances of success on Wednesday.

Tip 2

Botafogo forward Igor Jesus made a sharp impression on his debut for the national team, scoring the equalising goal on the stroke of half time.

That performance is set to see him retain his place in the starting XI for the visit of Peru, and odds of 15/4 for a player to strike while the iron is hot greatly appeals.

Brazil Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up

Brazil have now recorded as many wins as they have losses during World Cup qualifying, most recently edging out Chile 2-1 in a tight contest away from home.

Dorival Junior will be without first choice goalkeeper Alisson and midfielder Lucas Paqueta for the visit of Peru.

Brazil Predicted XI: Ederson; Danilo, Marquinhos, Gabriel, Abner; Bruno Guimaraes, Andre; Raphinha, Luiz Henrique, Igor Jesus; Rodrygo.

Peru Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up

Despite an extensive injury list, Peru pulled off a 1-0 victory over Uruguay last Saturday thanks to Miguel Araujo’s 88th-minute winner.

La Bicolor’s most notable absentees include midfield duo Yoshimar Yotun and Renato Tapia, as well as striker Gianluca Lapadula.

Peru Predicted XI: Gallesse; Polo, Araujo, Zambrano, Abram, Callens; Sonne, Castillo, Pena; Valera, Flores.
