Team news & rosters

Position Peru roster
Goalkeepers Gallese, Carvallo, Caceda
Defenders Advincula, Ramos, Trauco, Corzo, Abram, Santamaria, Callens, Lopez, Lora
Midfielders Yotun, Cueva, Carrillo, Tapia, Flores, Gonzales, Pena, Cartagena, Garcia, Costa, Tavara
Forwards Guerrero, Ruidiaz, Lapadula

Ricardo Gareca presided over a first World Cup appearance at Russia 2018 for almost four decades, but he will know that a drastic turnaround in fortunes is needed to figure in Qatar next year.

His squad is an experienced one however and they will hope to be able to seize the advantage when they host their fellow down-on-their-luck visitors in the capital.

Predicted Peru starting XI:  Gallese; Advincula, Santamaria, Callens, Lopez; Tapia, Yotun; Carrillo, Cueva, Flores; Guerrero.

Position Venezuela roster
Goalkeepers Farinez, Graterol, Romo
Defenders Rosales, A. Gonzalez, Villanueva, Velazquez, Hernandez, Chancellor, A. Martinez, Ferraresi, O. Gonzalez*, Carrillo*
Midfielders Rincon, Otero, Murillo, Moreno, Savarino, Soltedo, Manzano, Jose Martinez, Castillo, Bello
Forwards Rondon, Josef Martinez, Hurtado, Ramirez, Vargas*

*denotes uncapped player

Interim boss Leonardo Gonzalez has not enjoyed the cleanest start to his tenure in charge, but a defeat against Copa America holders Argentina is unlikely to be a black mark upon his character.

Even so, the heat is on for him to prove that his side - who have never reached the World Cup - can avoid picking up the wooden spoon in another qualification campaign.

Predicted Venezuela starting XI:  Farinez; A. Gonzalez, Ferraresi, Velazquez, O. Gonzalez; Savarino, Rincon, Jose Martinez, Soltedo; Ramirez, Josef Martinez.
