Despite the inconsistent campaign, coach Ibáñez still believes in the old frame. In the most recent match, Edison Flores was selected to replace Andre Carrillo (injured) - the only change from the call-up in March.

The back four of Luis Advincula, Carlos Zambrano, Renzo Garces and Marcos Lopez are likely to continue to defend the goal of veteran goalkeeper Pedro Gallese. Up front, Paolo Guerrero is still expected to be the spearhead leading the attack.

Ecuador continues to be without the service of the greatest striker in the history of the national team – Enner Valencia – due to a grade three muscle injury while playing for Internacional, and is expected to be out for several weeks.

Without Valencia, coach Beccacece switched to a 4-4-2 formation, with striker John Yeboah (Venezia) joining the striker duo – and will likely continue to play from the start.

The midfield is still anchored by Moisés Caicedo (Chelsea), while Willian Pacho – who just won the Champions League – will continue to command Ecuador's defense.

Latest expected lineup for Peru vs Ecuador

Peru:

Gallesse; Advincula, Zambrano, Garces, Lopez; Aquino, Tapia, Flores; Polo, Guerrero, Reyna

Ecuador:

Valle; Ordonez, Pacho, Hincapie, Estupinan; Angulo, Vite, Caicedo, Minda; Yeboah, Franco

Latest football commentary on Peru vs Ecuador

Currently unbeaten in their last eight games, Ecuador have found themselves in a familiar situation: failing to score in two consecutive games – the second time they have encountered this situation in the recent run of matches.

The 0-1 defeat to Brazil in September 2024 has not been avenged by "La Tri", however, coach Sebastian Beccacece can be satisfied as his students have made efforts to overcome difficulties to get closer to a World Cup berth.

Deducted 3 points at the beginning of the qualifying campaign for using an ineligible player in the 2022 qualifiers, Ecuador had a disadvantageous start, but made an impressive comeback with 7 wins, 6 draws and only 2 losses.

This achievement helps Ecuador rise to 2nd place in the CONMEBOL regional rankings, 6 points ahead of 7th-placed Venezuela while still having 3 more matches.

They have already secured a place in the intercontinental play-offs, and if they win on Monday, Ecuador could officially book a direct ticket to the 2026 World Cup. However, history has not been on their side in recent away trips to Peru.

Ecuador are winless in their last three away games against Peru in World Cup qualifying, with two defeats and a draw – and they will be determined to break the streak under the lights of Lima.

On the other side of the front line, although usually dominating when hosting Ecuador at home, Peru showed a lackluster image every time they played away - evidenced by the 0-1 loss in the first leg in Quito, extending their 5-match winless streak at that time.

Despite ending the drought with a surprise win over Uruguay, La Bicolor have fallen into a vicious cycle again. It was not until a 3-1 win over Bolivia that they picked up three more points – and then fell back into their current winless streak.

Peru have failed to score in their last two games – a 1-0 loss to Venezuela and a goalless draw with Colombia. While that resilient performance earned them a point, Oscar Ibáñez’s side are still ninth with 11 points, and anything other than a win would all but end their chances of qualifying for the play-offs.

However, home advantage is still a hope for Peru: they are unbeaten in their last 5 home qualifiers (won 2), and only lost to Argentina and Brazil in the first matches.
