How Colombia could line up against Peru

Colombia come into Saturday's Copa America third-place playoff against Peru without midfielder Mateus Uribe, after the Porto star recently left the camp early for treatment on a serious muscular injury.

In his absence, Gustavo Cuellar came into the side last time out to partner Wilmar Barrios, who has been one of the standout players for his nation in this tournament with a series of impressive performances in front of the back four.

The attacking line continued to struggle in the semi-final clash with Argentina, as Duvan Zapata and Rafael Borre failed to produce a goal.

That could see Reinaldo Rueda bring Miguel Borja back into the side to increase their attacking threat for the final game.

Instead, they relied on winger Luis Diaz scoring his second goal of the tournament to take the semi-final to a penalty shootout, and he will continue to operate on the left-hand side.

On the other flank, Juan Cuadrado will keep his place, having been another of Colombia's most consistent performers at the Copa America this year.

The established back four of Daniel Munoz, Davinson Sanchez, Yerry Mina and William Tesillo will likely remain unchanged, shielding experienced goalkeeper David Ospina between the sticks.

Colombia possible starting lineup: Ospina; Munoz, Mina, Sanchez, Tesillo; Cuadrado, Barrios, Cuellar, Diaz; Zapata, Borja
