Latest football match prediction: Venezuela vs Peru

Following their impressive Copa America campaign last summer, where they reached the quarter-finals, the Venezuelan national team has clearly slowed down with a run of eight consecutive winless matches across all competitions.

Under coach Fernando Batista, they have only managed three points in their last seven qualifying matches, and have lost their last two games with a combined score of 3-7.

Nevertheless, Venezuela maintained an unbeaten home record in the qualifiers, earning 10 out of 12 points at home. In their last two home matches, they drew 1-1 with both Argentina and Brazil.

Before the 14th matchday, Venezuela was seven points behind Colombia in the race for direct qualification to the 2026 World Cup finals, but only one point behind Bolivia in the intercontinental play-off position.

They once gained four points after falling behind in the qualifiers, but also dropped six points despite scoring the opening goal – otherwise, they could now be just one point behind Colombia in the playoff race.

It has been almost 12 years since Venezuela last beat Peru at home – a 3-2 victory in the 2013 World Cup qualifiers.

On the other side, Peru finally secured their first victory in this year's World Cup qualifiers, bringing them back into the race for a play-off spot.

After 13 matches, Peru has 10 points – just three points behind Bolivia in the race for seventh place, with five qualifying matches remaining.

Coach Oscar Ibanez secured his first victory as national team manager last Thursday, in his official debut match after having previously won the Copa Sudamericana as a player.

Prior to this, Peru had gone three consecutive qualifying matches without a win and without scoring a single goal.

To date, La Bicolor has yet to win an away game in their 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign, and has not even scored a single goal in away matches.

Nevertheless, they have a good head-to-head record against Venezuela, remaining unbeaten in their last eight encounters across all competitions, including a 2-1 victory in Caracas in November 2021.
