To get to this match, Australia had to beat the UAE last week. The team won that match 2-1, with Jackson Irvine and Ajdin Hrustic each scoring goals in the victory. Hrustic put the Aussies ahead for good in the 84th minute.
Australia looked destined to miss the World Cup after consecutive shutout losses in March against Japan and Saudi Arabia, but now the team is on the brink of its fifth consecutive appearance on the world’s largest stage.
Predicted Australia starting XI: Behich, Rowles, Wright, Atkinson, Mooy, Goodwin, Irvine, Hrustic, Boyle, Leckie; Ryan

Peru enters this match on a two-match winning streak, beating Paraguay back in March in a World Cup qualifier and then beating New Zealand 1-0 last week in a tune-up match to prepare for this important contest.
Gianluca Lapadula scored a 69th-minute goal in the friendly match against New Zealand. The team had just one shot on target, but took eight total shots to New Zealand’s two.
With a win, Peru will play in the World Cup for the second time in a row. It would signal that Peruvian soccer is truly on the rise after the nation had missed eight World Cups in a row before 2018.
Predicted Peru starting XI: Advíncula, Zambrano, Callens, Trauco, Tapia, Flores, Pena, Yotún, Cueva, Lapadula; Gallese
