Peru has faced a challenging run in their last ten matches at this level, managing just three draws and enduring seven losses. On the other hand, Ecuador has maintained a strong home record, with 11 wins from their last 16 home games, despite not being in top form recently.
Ecuador’s recent performances have often featured low-scoring games, with five of their last seven matches ending with fewer than 2.5 goals. Similarly, Peru has seen eight of their last ten away games in the World Championship 2026 with two or fewer goals.
Peru’s away games have typically been uneventful, with six of their previous seven matches featuring at least one clean sheet. Ecuador’s home games have followed a similar trend, with eight of their last nine matches at this level, including six consecutively, also featuring a clean sheet for at least one side.
Ecuador needs a win to keep their chances alive in this tie, and they have achieved this in six of their last eight home matches in the World Championship 2026. In contrast, Peru has struggled on the road, losing three of their last four away games and securing just one win in their last six attempts.
