Friendly International · Friendlies 1Mexico vs Peru Preview
Mexico are riding a wave of positive momentum, with four wins and a draw from their last five outings. Rafael Márquez is still searching for his first victory as head coach after a 1-1 draw with Colombia, where 17-year-old Gilberto Mora became the youngest ever scorer under his tenure. Márquez is expected to rotate heavily, with up to seven changes and Santiago Giménez potentially earning minutes.
Peru's form paints a worrying picture. Mano Menezes's side have lost three of their last five matches, including a bruising 4-1 defeat to the USA that exposed serious defensive frailties. Seven goals conceded in their previous two games is a statistic that will concern the coaching staff deeply. This friendly window represents a rebuilding exercise, with experienced figures like Pedro Gallese nearing historic appearance milestones while younger players fight for recognition.
Mexico's recent form makes them the standout pick here at 1.50. Rafael Márquez's side have been difficult to beat, collecting four wins and a draw from five matches, while Peru arrive in dire shape with three defeats from their last five. That 4-1 loss to the USA exposed serious defensive frailties under Mano Menezes, and a squad still searching for cohesion will struggle against a confident Mexican outfit.
Peru have conceded at an alarming rate recently, shipping seven goals across their last two fixtures. Mexico, by contrast, have been miserly at the back, averaging well under a goal conceded per game over their recent run. With Márquez potentially rotating up to seven players, fresh legs should keep the intensity high. The home win looks solid value.
The over 2.5 goals market at N/A also warrants attention given Peru's porous backline. Both teams to score at 1.07 is another angle worth considering; Mexico's youngsters, including 17-year-old Gilberto Mora, have shown attacking intent, while Peru will push forward out of necessity. A Mexico victory remains our primary selection for this friendly at Sports Illustrated Stadium. Odds correct at time of publication.
