Peru vs Argentina: World Cup Qualifiers Live Stream, Form Guide, Head to Head, Schedule, Fixture and Probable Lineups

Argentina is aiming for their fourth consecutive victory in the 2026 World Cup qualification group as they head to Peru. Lionel Scaloni’s team currently lead the group with nine points. In contrast, Peru has had a challenging time in the group, securing only one point from three games, which places them in ninth position. Peru has participated in five World Cup finals, with their best performances occurring in 1970 and 1978, reaching the quarter-finals on those occasions. They were present in the 2018 World Cup but were eliminated in the group stage. However, they did not qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Juan Reynoso’s squad began their 2026 World Cup qualification campaign with a goalless draw against Paraguay last month but suffered back-to-back losses to Brazil and Chile. Peru’s upcoming matches against Bolivia and Venezuela next month will be crucial in determining their final standing in the qualification table. Peru has not defeated Argentina in any competition since June 1997. Nevertheless, two of their last four encounters have ended in draws.

Argentina has maintained their strong form since winning the World Cup against France in December. They have recorded seven consecutive victories in 2023, including four friendly matches. The reigning world champions have won their first three qualification matches for the 2026 World Cup. Their campaign began with a 1-0 win over Ecuador on September 8. They followed it up with a 3-0 victory against Bolivia in their second match and secured a 1-0 win over Paraguay in their most recent outing. Argentina last failed to qualify for a World Cup finals in 1970, making their absence in the 2026 competition highly unlikely.
