Peru and Chile are fighting for a crucial win in their World Cup qualification campaign as they sit at the bottom of the table. Paraguay's upset over Argentina has added more pressure for these two sides to secure points. While Australian and Colombian fans can watch for free on SBS on Demand and Caracol Play, respectively, those traveling abroad can still access the game through a VPN.
Chile's national team manager Ricardo Gareca is optimistic about their upcoming World Cup qualifier against Peru, seeing it as a chance for a new beginning. With Chile currently at the bottom of the South American qualifying group, Gareca knows a win is crucial in reviving their hopes for the 2026 World Cup. The match also marks Gareca's first return to Lima since his departure as Peru's coach in 2022, and the return of Arturo Vidal to the national squad after 14 months adds another dynamic to the game. Despite past tension between the two, Gareca is focused on the team's success and is confident they can come to an agreement for the greater good of the national team.
