Peru will face Paraguay this Tuesday at the Lima National Stadium for Matchday 18 of the Conmebol Qualifiers for the Qatar 2022 World Cup. Here you can find out the predicted lineups of both teams for this Qualifiers game. It will be broadcast in the United States exclusively on FuboTV (free trial).

It is the last chance for Peru to fight for a place in the next World Cup in Qatar. With the four Conmebol qualifiers already defined, there are three teams that still have a chance of reaching the playoffs to play their last chance to go to Qatar. Peru are the best positioned, and depending on other results, even a tie would reach them, however, they should not be overconfident.

On the Paraguayan side, they come from winning comfortably against an unknown Ecuador that could do little against an inspired Paraguayan team. Although they already know they have no chance of going to the next World Cup, they have the opportunity to test the team and prepare for future commitments, and above all to try to qualify for the next World Cup.
