Peru vs New Zealand Predictions

• Peru have lost one of their last eight matches
• Peru are ranked 79 places above New Zealand in the FIFA World Rankings
• This is a massive step up in class of opposition for New Zealand

Marked step up in class for New Zealand

New Zealand’s Australia & Oceania World Cup Qualifying group consisted of opponents all ranked 137^th or lower in the FIFA World Rankings. New Zealand duly secured a safe passage through the weak group and knockout rounds but now travel to Spain to face a Peru side in what is a huge step up in class. Peru are ranked 22^nd in the world and are 79 places ahead of New Zealand in the FIFA World Rankings.

Peru should have too much quality 

Peru has players littered across top leagues all over the globe and shouldn’t have much stress in taking care of business on Sunday. Peru have lost one of their last eight matches and drop into a significantly lower grade to take on New Zealand in this friendly in Spain. Peru’s last four matches have all gone under 2.5 goals in the match and this isn’t likely to be free flowing with both sides likely to ring the changes throughout the evening.

Peru to Win and Under 2.5 Match Goals is the main selection for Sunday’s international friendly at RCDE Stadium. 2-0 to Peru will be the correct score prediction for Sunday’s game, the same score line as when these sides last met in 2017.
