The South American side was beaten by Ecuador on Thursday, which will make them hungry to make ammends with their fans.

What has been Perú and Costa Rica's form ahead of this game?

Peru enters this match having los three of their five post-FIFA World Cup friendlies. Their only win came during a clash against Chile, and their most recent match saw Gareca's men losing against Ecuador with a 2-0 score.

Costa Rica comes into this game with their chins up, thanks to their 3-2 victory against Chile last Friday. That game will certainly come in handy for new coach Gustavo Matosas, who started his stint as Los Ticos' head coach on a high note. Before Matosas' appointment, Costa Rica had lost all of their four friendlies after the FIFA World Cup.
