Argentina vs Peru | Copa America 2024 | Pre Match

Argentina don’t need to win this game, but their is a likelihood they will win. La Albiceleste are victorious in 75.8% of pre-match simulations.

If Argentina win, they will have three consecutive wins against Peru in the Copa America for the first time since between 1927-1947 (W7).

Should Peru earn the win they need, it would be their first victory over Argentina since June 1997, a 2-1 win at the Copa America to progress to the quarter-finals.

Argentina’s younger players are set to be given the opportunity to shine in their Copa America group meeting with Peru. The reigning champions Argentina secured their spot in the quarter-finals of the competition following their 1-0 win over Chile on Wednesday.

It offers the opportunity for head coach Lionel Scaloni to experiment with his side, and he is hopeful Argentina’s youngsters can seize the moment against La Blanquirroja. 

​Peru, meanwhile, will be looking to remain in the tournament. Jorge Fossati’s men sit bottom of Group A, two points behind second-place Canada, so they must win in Miami. A defeat will see them eliminated from the competition without a win for the first time since 1995, when they recorded two losses (v Brazil and Ecuador) and one draw (v Colombia) in the group stage.

Should Peru earn all three points, it would be their first victory over Argentina since June 1997, a 2-1 win at the Copa America to progress to the quarter-finals.
