Real-time Football scores and highlights.

Peru

The Peruvian national team can be assessed by their performance in official matches, particularly the qualification games for the 2026 World Cup. Currently, Peru sits at the bottom of the South American group, having earned only 2 points in six matches. However, they are only three points away from seventh place, so there is still plenty of room for improvement.

Their last friendly match was at the end of March, where they defeated the Dominican Republic 4-1 at home. This victory marked their second consecutive win, as they had also beaten Nicaragua 2-0 at home a few days earlier.

Paraguay

The Paraguayan national team, known as “Guarani,” has not played an official match this year. Their last game was a World Cup qualifier in November of the previous year. Paraguay is currently seventh in the South American group, a position that could allow them to compete in the playoffs for a World Cup spot, trailing the top six by just two points.

In their last match, Paraguay lost 0-1 at home to Colombia, conceding the only goal early in the game. With six months of inactivity, it’s unclear what form “Guarani” will be in for this match.

Interesting Facts and Head-to-Head History

• The rivals have an extensive history of encounters, with Paraguay failing to win in their last 11 meetings against Peru.
• The last time these teams played was during last year’s World Cup qualification, ending in a 0-0 draw.
• Paraguay has managed just one win in their last six encounters.

Peru vs Paraguay Prediction

A challenging match is expected, with the hosts having a slightly better chance of success due to the home-field advantage. Bookmakers do not designate a clear favorite in this matchup. Therefore, a bet on a total of less than 2.5 goals is recommended, and considering a victory for Peru with a zero handicap is also an option.
