Peru vs Spain: Team News and Expert Analysis
Peru failed in the World Cup qualifiers, collecting only twelve points—only Chile had one less. They also suffered enough defeats in friendlies. However, this time they managed to beat Haiti, even though they were losing until the 81st minute.
Spain won the Euros in great style, but could not defend their Nations League title, losing to Portugal in the final on penalties. In qualifying, they dropped points only in the very last round, allowing Turkey to snatch a draw. They also failed to score against Egypt in March and delivered a disappointing 1-1 result against Iraq.
The Latin American team currently scores 0.7 goals per match but concedes twice as many—1.4 per game. The European champions still have an excellent ratio: 2.7 goals scored to just 0.5 conceded.
