Mexico can't count on some important players but need to do their best not to disappoint in their important test against Peru on Saturday night. Here are our top Mexico vs. Peru picks.
Mexico head coach Gerardo Martino will not be able to field any of Raul Jimenez, Jorge Sanchez, Luis Romo, Hector Herrera, or Rogelio Funes Mori, who are out of his plans because of injuries. Martino will need to find balance and bite in his team for the duel against a wicked opponent. Peru only missed out on a World Cup spot after losing on penalties to Australia in an intercontinental playoff in June.
Here are our Mexico vs. Peru picks (odds via FanDuel Sportsbook; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).
