Brazil are back with another important match this week as they take on Peru in a Copa America semi-final clash at the Olympic Stadium on Monday. Brazil have excellent players in their ranks and hold the upper hand going into this fixture.
Peru have been fairly inconsistent in Copa America 2021 and have plenty of work to do ahead of this fixture. The Peruvians suffered a 4-0 defeat at the hands of Tite’s Brazil last month and cannot afford another debacle this week.
Brazil, on the other hand, are unbeaten in Copa America this year and have been impressive in recent weeks. The Selecao were troubled by Chile over the weekend and will need to make a statement of intent in this fixture.
