This will be the first ever encounter between Peru and Denmark.
One of the original participants in 1930, Peru qualified for their fifth World Cup after beating New Zealand in the playoffs. It’s their first appearance since 1982, which is the biggest gap of years (36) between appearances at the World Cup for any of the 32 teams qualified for the 2018 tournament.
Peru’s only previous World Cup outside the Americas was in 1982 in Spain where they didn’t get past the first round (D2 L1). They are winless in their past six games at the World Cup (D2 L4), with their last win in the tournament coming nearly 40 years ago, on 11 June 1978 against Iran (4-1).
Peru has faced the eventual World Cup winner in each of their four previous World Cup appearances (Uruguay in 1930, Brazil in 1970, Argentina in 1978, Italy in 1982).
Denmark has reached the knockout stages in three of their four previous World Cup appearances but never progressed past the quarter-finals (1998).
Only two of Denmark’s 16 games at the World Cup have ended in draws (W8 L6). Meanwhile, they have kept only one clean sheet in their last 11 World Cup games, against France in 2002 (2-0).
All 27 of Denmark’s goals at the World Cup have come from inside the box.
Top scorer (11) and assist provider (3) for Denmark during the 2018 World Cup qualifiers, Christian Eriksen was directly involved in 56% of his team’s goals. Six of his 11 goals came from outside the box.
Teófilo Cubillas has scored 10 and assisted two of Peru’s 19 goals at the World Cup (63%).
This is Åge Hareide’s first major tournament as a manager. The Norwegian will attempt to become the second manager to take Denmark past the round of 16 after Bo Johansson in 1998.
This will be Ricardo Gareca’s first World Cup as manager. He has taken Peru to the knockout stages in both of his previous major tournaments (Copa America semi-finals in 2015, quarter-finals in 2016).
Peru is competing at their first World Cup since 1982 and face a Denmark team hoping to make an impression in Russia.
The South Americans beat New Zealand over two playoff legs to become the final team to qualify for the tournament.
Denmark thrashed Ireland in their own playoff, with Christian Eriksen scoring a hat-trick, and will hope to improve upon their group stage exit from 2010.
