Australia vs Peru 13.06.2022
The Intercontinental World Cup slots will be decided this week and one of the eagerly anticipated encounters sees Australia trade tackles with Peru for a place at the World Cup in Qatar. Both sides were at the last World Cup, after winning their play-off matches respectively.
This time, however, only one of them will be in action in November as they have to contend for the one slot available to them. To get to this stage, but sides have endured a gruelling qualification campaign with Australia finishing third in the final Group stage of the AFC Qualifiers before seeing off The United Arab Emirates courtesy of a late Ajdin Rustin goal.
Peru finished fifth in the CONMEBOL qualifiers and are widely considered favourites to clinch the ticket ahead of the Socceroos. La Blanquirroja finished in second and third places at the 2019 and 2021 Copa America respectively, and they will be looking to cap if off with a place in Qatar.
Given the importance of this fixture and the parity in terms of quality and motivation, we reckon the chances in the First half will be few and between and it will end in a draw.
