La Celeste has lost two games in a row, while Peru's chances of playing the WC rely heavily on winning this match. Who'll come out on top?

Broadcast info

Who's playing? Perú hosts Uruguay after picking up some disappointing results. La Franjirroja has only been able to win one of their last five matches, putting their chances of a World Cup spot in jeopardy.

Uruguay has also experienced its fair share of ups and downs. La Celeste has lost its two most recent games, creating a seven-point gap between them and the rising Brazilian squad. Having their finest player around will surely come in handy for Tabarez's men as they try to put an end to their losing streak.

What time? Tuesday, March 28, at 19:15 PT/ 20:15 CT/ 22:15 ET. 

What stadium? The Estadio Nacional de Lima will be the venue hosting this match. This venue has hosted Perú's home games since 1952, and can accomodate up to 50,000 fans.

Team news

The hosts will have most of their finest players available for this match, with the only exception of Christian Ramos, who picked up a one-match ban after the game against Venezuela. Striker Paolo Guerrero, the team's all-time top scorer, will try to keep Peru's chances alive by putting up a show against the Uruguayans.

On the other side of the pitch, Luis Suárez will return to the team's lineup after missing the game against Brazil. The talented striker has been involved in 9 of Uruguay's goals (3 goals, six assists), and his partnership with Edinson Cavani could give Peru's defense quite a headache. Coach Oscar Tabarez will have to make do without Alvaro Pereira, forcing Gastón Silva to take his place as left back.
