On Tuesday evening, two teams looking to improve after the first round of games will clash at Children's Mercy Park in Kansas City. It's Peru vs Canada. On paper, these are the two teams unlikely to make it out of Group A, but after the Peruvians secured a relatively surprising draw against Chile on match-day one, they know that they have a serious chance of going through if they can get a positive result here. After losing to world champions Argentina in the first game, the Canadians need a win, but to get that, they'll need to do something that they've not done in three matches, which is score a goal.Limited Offer.

Peru - Canada: Form Analysis
In terms of recent form, it's quite hard to criticize the Peruvians, who without setting the world alight, have delivered some very respectable results. Ricardo Gareca's men stood firm against Chile in their first Group A game, which shouldn't be ignored, while they've now avoided defeat in each of their last six matches, picking up respectable ties against the likes of Paraguay and Venezuela. Such form suggests that they could very easily make life tough for a Canadian side struggling offensively.
To say that the Canadians aren't packing a punch is probably an understatement. Jesse Marsch's men have now failed to find the net in three games straight. Of course, they've faced tough opponents during that time, so we shouldn't write them off based on that fact alone, but such a lack of goals is still concerning. It's also concerning that the Canucks have only beaten teams such as Cuba and Jamaica in the year.

Peru & Canada Squad Analysis
The Peruvians don't have the most glamorous squad, but what they do have is a core of players who've played together for a long time, while their squad is also filled with highly experienced campaigners such as Luis Advincula, Gianluca Lapadula and Carlos Zambrano. In players such as Miguel Araujo and Wilder Cartagena, they also have players with vital experience of playing soccer on US soil, which must be seen as a positive ahead of this tournament.
As for Canada, well, this is arguably the best squad that they've ever had. In someone like Alphonso Davies, they have a player who plies his trade at the height of European soccer with Bayern Munich, while the likes of Jonathan David, Cyle Larin and Tajon Buchanan also play in some of Europe's best leagues.
