Canada are presented their best chance yet to turn their recent quality performances into tangible, major tournament results as they meet Peru in the 2024 Copa America group stage.

Les Rouges fell to the world's No. 1 ranked side Argentina in their opener, playing well but seeing a few costly defensive errors make the difference in a 2-0 defeat. Just like at the 2022 World Cup, Canada were left without points despite impressing across 90 minutes against a top opponent.

Now, it will be about translating those performances into results in an effort to qualify for the Copa America knockout stage. Following Peru and Chile's scoreless draw in the opening round of matches, Group A remains wide open below expected winners Argentina.

The Sporting News brings you the latest reports and updates regarding who will take the field in the Canada vs. Peru match from Kansas City on Tuesday.

Canada vs. Peru predicted lineups, starting 11, team news

Jesse Marsch has no new injury concerns to speak of and has deployed a similar starting lineup to that seen against Argentina in the opening group match.

Stars Alphonso Davies and Jonathan David will lead the team, with Davies playing left-back as he does for Bayern Munich and David deployed up front. His strike partner Cyle Larin failed to find the net against Argentina but garnered praise for his defensive contributions in a difficult matchup.

Canada starting lineup (4-4-2, right to left): Crepeau (GK) — Johnston, Bombito, Cornelius, Davies — Laryea, Kone, Eustaquio, Millar — David, Larin.

Injured: None.
Suspended: None.
On a yellow: Kone, Cornelius.

Peru will be without captain Luis Advincula after he suffered an Achilles injury in the opener against Chile, but they received great news that he did not tear the ligament. While he has been ruled out of the Canada match, Peru head coach Jorge Fossati said that Advincula has a good chance of proving fit to participate in the group finale against Argentina.

He is replaced at left-back by Feyenoord's Marcos Lopez who has 33 caps at 24 years old and is highly thought of in the national-team camp. Lopez was a bit-part player for Feyenoord this past season but managed 12 appearances in their second-place Eredivisie finish.

Defender Alex Callens was withdrawn from the Chile match late due to injury but only had a cramp and will be fine. Legendary forward Paolo Guerrero is not longer a starter for this side, but he came off the bench against Chile and saw his team's best chance saved in the 79th minute.

Peru starting lineup (3-5-2, right to left): Gallese (GK) — Araujo, Zambrano, Callens — Polo, Pena, Cartagena, Quispe, Lopez — Lapadula, Flores.

Injured: Advincula (Achilles, OUT)
Suspended: None.
On a yellow: Zambrano.
