Venezuela and Peru will face off on Saturday, June 15, in Brazil for their first action in the 2019 Copa America.
Peru, two-time South American champions, hasn't won the tournament since 1975. The team's 23-man squad includes record goalscorer Paolo Guerrero, who made his return in April after serving a suspension for doping. Guerrero is Peru's all-time leading goalscorer with 35 tallies in 93 games.
Venezuela, meanwhile, is coming off of a 3–0 victory over the United States after previously falling to Mexico and tying Ecuador. The team has never won a Copa America title.
