Venezuela welcome Peru at the Estadio Olimpico in Caracas today, November 16, 2021, at 4:00 PM (ET) in the CONMEBOL World Cup Qualifiers 2022. The visitors will try to get a new away victory to keep their hopes of qualifying for Qatar 2022 alive. Here, you will find the lineups of both teams that will appear in Matchday 14 of the South American World Cup Qualifiers.

This will be their 38th overall meeting. No surprises here as Peru are by far favorites in head-to-head clashes, having celebrated a victory on 22 occasions so far; Venezuela have grabbed a triumph only eight times to this day, and the remaining seven matches have ended in a draw.

Their most recent game was played on September 5, 2021, and it ended in a tight 1-0 win for the White and Red in their first meeting in the 2022 Qatar Qualifiers at the Estadio Nacional in Lima. It promises to be a more exciting clash as these two countries clash for the third time this year, again at the World Cup Qualifiers 2022.

Venezuela lineup

Salomon Rondon has missed the international break to focus on getting in shape for Everton. The Red Wine coach Leonardo Gonzalez wants to get a result from this one to keep Venezuela's hopes alive, although the outlook is disencouraging. 

Venezuela starting XI: Fariñez, Ferraresi, Osorio, Moreno, Savarino, Rincón, Aristeguieta, González, Hernández.

 

Peru lineup 

Christian Cueva, Sergio Pena, and Renato Tapia continue to participate. After serving a ban the last time out, Yoshimar Yotun's comeback will take place. Gianluca Lapadula keeps his place in the starting lineup after scoring his fourth international goal in the 3-0 victory over Bolivia last Thursday.

Peru starting XI: Pedro Gallese, Luis Advíncula, Christian Ramos, Luis Abram, Miguel Trauco, Renato Tapia, Yoshimar Yotún, Sergio Peña, André Carrillo, Christian Cueva, Gianluca Lapadula.
