On Thursday, four matches of the penultimate round of CONMEBOL qualifying will be played at the same time in the evening; one will be Peru vs. Uruguay at the Estadio Centenario in Montevideo.
Mathematically, a draw in the last two matches would qualify Uruguay for the next World Cup; even if they lose both matches, they still have a high probability of qualifying. Peru, on the other hand, winless in their last three matches against Venezuela, Colombia, and Ecuador, is virtually eliminated.
Peru had one of its worst World Cup qualifiers in years but will look to improve their form in the final two matches. To that end, Óscar Ibañez, coach of the "bicolor," called up players with extensive experience with the national team, including Yotún, Valera, and Concha, but the most well-known of all, Paolo Guerrero, will not play due to injury.
Uruguay has a deeper squad, with most of the players currently playing in European leagues. Uruguay's manager, Bielsa, was self-critical, stating that his team needs to improve in attack. Someone who can help with that is Darwin Núñez, who moved from Liverpool to the Saudi Arabian league in the last transfer window.

Our Uruguay vs Peru Prediction
It was possible to bring in Real Madrid midfielder Federico Valverde for this squad, but Uruguay's most significant absences for this match in Montevideo are the absence of two starting defenders: Araujo from Barcelona and Jiménez from Atlético Madrid.
As for Peru, the core of the team remains the same; the Peruvian starting lineup in the Uruguayan capital is expected to feature Gallese as goalkeeper and Advíncula and Zambrano.
Prior to Fossati's dismissal as the Peruvian national team's coach, Peru secured a 1-0 victory over Uruguay in Lima; however, Peru's victories in Montevideo have been infrequent.
Our prediction for Peru vs Uruguay is: Uruguay -1.5.
