Peru U20 - Chile U20

Sudamericano U20

Just a small bet here. Peru is the host, and that should give them a nice advantage here. They will have the largest supporters group, and they also had a lot of time to prepare for this match. And physical preparation should be a key factor here, especially since they will play in Arequipa, a town situated at more than 2000 meters of altitude. The Chileans traveled to the spot much later than the Peruvians, so I guess they could very well have some problems at that altitude. Now, regarding the squads of these teams, I'm again giving Peru an advantage. Although no name is big enough to be heard overseas, they have some really talented and promising youngsters. Worth mentioning are the midfielder Christian Cueva from San Martin, who made a very good season in 2010, helping his team win the title. Another important player could be Joazhino Arroe, who is registered with Siena from Italy. Meanwhile, Chile's squad seem much weaker, with very few promising players, most of them taken from the lower-profile teams (some even from the lower divisions). So, with all this factors (better squad, high altitude, host country), Peru looks like a serious contender for the Final Group, and since they are in the so-called group of death, a good start will be the key. I see the odds a bit too high on them, so I'm willing to risk a few units. GL!

Peru (-0.25 AH) @ 2.00, 3/10
Result: 0-2, LOST
