Peru wrap up their international friendlies for the month with a game against Jamaica at the Estadio Nacional de Lima on Thursday.

Peru played out a 1-1 draw at the venue against Panama on Monday while this is the only friendly game planned for the month for Jamaica.

Both teams will resume their 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifying campaigns for the final push later this month and this game provides a good opportunity for both managers to get their players in shape.

The two sides have met just four times so far with all the games being international friendlies. Jamaica have been winless against the South American side, who have three wins in this fixture while one game has ended in a draw.

They last met in 2017 at the Estadio Monumental Virgen de Chapi in an off-season friendly which ended in a comfortable 3-1 win for La Blanquirroja.
