Command Analysis

Venezuela

Current form
Venezuela successfully played the opening part of the qualifying tournament, with draws with Argentina (1:1), Brazil (1:1), and Uruguay (0:0). However, it is not possible to perform smoothly and stably at a distance. The national team has not won nine matches in a row in the qualification. In the last game on the road, a 1-2 defeat against Ecuador was recorded. As a result, after 13 rounds, Fernando Baptiste's team scored 12 points and finished eighth in the table. The gap from Bolivia, which is on the seventh line, is only one point. It is unlikely to be possible to compete with Colombia from the sixth position, as the difference has reached seven points.
Disqualifications and injuries
Angel and Vargas will not play for the Venezuelan national team due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
- There has been an exchange of goals in six consecutive matches involving Venezuela.
- At least three goals have been scored in the three previous matches of the Venezuelan national team.
The approximate line-up: Romo - Aramburu, Ferraresi, Garcia, Macun - Segovia, Caceres, Bueno – Bellio, Rondon, Mendoza.

Peru

Current form
The Peruvian national team is not doing much in the current qualifying round. In 13 rounds played, we managed to score only 10 points, with which the team is on the penultimate ninth line. Nevertheless, it is worth noting the tangible progress, as in the last five matches we managed to win two victories – over Uruguay (1-0) and Bolivia (3:1). The team held both meetings on its own field. The Peruvians perform very poorly on the road – they have scored only one point since the start of the tournament, not a single goal scored with 10 goals conceded.
Disqualifications and injuries
Cayens and Cartagena will not play due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
- In the last eight face-to-face meetings, the national team of Peru has not lost to Venezuela.
- In three of the five previous matches involving the Peruvians, a draw with an accurate score of 0-0 was recorded in the first half.
Approximate line–up: Gallese Advincula, Araujo, Zambrano, Truco – Carrillo, Tapia, Peña Polo, Reina Guerreiro.

5.40Tip and bets
In many ways, we are facing a key match between rivals who still have chances to qualify for the World Cup. Given the fact that Venezuela plays at home, and Peru regularly fails away matches, bookmakers give the advantage to the hosts. Meanwhile, for the Venezuelan national team, matches against the Peruvians are traditionally unsuccessful, they have not been able to defeat this opponent since 2015. After defeating Bolivia, the Incas will clearly be on a decent emotional high and can count on at least one point today.
Our betting tip is that Peru will not lose by a factor of 1.68
Bet on the total
It is very likely that there is an underestimation of the attacking capabilities of the teams in the line. In the previous three matches with Venezuela, more than two goals were scored. The Peruvians were able to open the defense of Bolivia three times the day before. We don't think there will be a scoring drought today.
The second bet is a total of more than two goals with a coefficient of 2.05
The first half bet
It should be noted that in three of the five previous matches with the participation of the national team of Peru, the results of the first half were recorded. We do not think that our opponents will immediately take unnecessary risks in such an important match today.
The betting tip is a draw in the first half with a coefficient of 1.90
