Despite their status as an outsider in the first-round match of the Copa América, Peru were able to grab a point in a goalless draw against Chile. They could have won it, but Gianluca Lapadula, who had several good opportunities, did not take advantage of his chances.
At the same time, the Peruvians definitely shouldn’t complain about their luck. The most dangerous moment in the match was from Alexis Sanchez, but the former Arsenal striker missed the target and shot the ball over the bar.
From a tournament perspective, a draw against Chile is not a bad result for Peru. They would be content with the same outcome against Canada. Firstly, Peru tends to play better without the ball, waiting for the opponent to make a mistake. Secondly, by the last round, Argentina will likely be without motivation, making it possible for Peru to fight for points.
In the match against Argentina, the Canadians lost 0-2, but initially, they had a promising display. In both halves, they had great chances, but Emiliano Martinez reminded us why he is one of the best keepers in the world.
Credit is also due to the Canadian goalkeeper Maxime Crépeau, who made several excellent saves. While the defence did not look convincing, the Red’s attackers were organized in the attack and should have scored at least once.
The upcoming game against Peru is critical for Canada’s goal to qualify. Considering the tournament situation, the Reds need 3 points, so we expect Jonathan David and co. to play as favourites from the first minute in our Copa América prediction.
Bet hereDespite losing their first game, Canada still deserves praise. They squandered several close opportunities, which is costly against opponents like Argentina. However, they are likely to bounce back as Jesse Marsch is one of the most creative coaches in the world.
Peru lacked creativity and their performance was lacklustre against Chile. The match was riddled with fouls, and aside from Gianluca Lapadula’s moment, there were no real chances. Against a stronger opponent, Peru will likely continue with the same defensive style, which could cause them significant problems.
In our football predictions, we suggest picking Canada’s victory in this match based on these trends. The Reds have many quality players, including Alphonso Davies, Tajon Buchanan, and Jonathan David, who can individually decide the fate of any game.
In the last three matches, the Peruvians have scored only a single goal. Canada has a worse result, having no goals, but they played against top international teams, including Argentina, France, and the Netherlands.
We don’t think there will be too many dangerous moments in the match. Considering the results of the matchday, the course of events in the upcoming meeting looks predictable. The Reds will probably try to play as the dominant team, aiming to get all the points, but an abundance of scoring opportunities is unlikely.
As a suggestion for Peru vs Canada, our football pick is betting on under 2.5 goals. It will probably be a low-scoring affair, with the Canadians eventually emerging victorious.
