Peru vs. Paraguay: the match preview

The last duel that both teams had was for the eighteenth day of the Qualifiers for Qatar 2022. That time, the national team beat the ‘guaraní’ squad 2-0, which allowed them to rank fifth in the table , with a chance to go to the repechage of said contest.

The Peruvian National Team arrives at this commitment with high expectations, after its last victory against El Salvador 4-1, in the United States. Of course, for this new day of international friendlies, the cast of ‘Cabezón’ is made up of more players from the local championship than from international leagues.

For his part, the Paraguayan strategist, Guillermo Barros Schelotto, has decided to have more young elements in his team, without neglecting experience, such as Miguel Almirón. When it comes to matches, in their last friendlies they have not had the expected results (a loss and a goalless draw), so they will go all out against Peru.
