The hosts are not having the best of tournaments as they remain winless in their last 5 matches, with their last win coming back in September.

With 17 points from 14 matches, Los Cafeteros is in 5th spot with plenty left to do in order to ensure a top 4 spot.

On the other hand, Peru beat Venezuela away 2-1 in their last match, to stay within contention of qualification.

Lapadula and Machis scored for either side to keep it evenly poised, before Cueva’s second half effort won the points for Peru.
