Match preview: Melgar vs Ayacucho

Melgar and Ayacucho will face off at the Estadio de la Universidad Nacional San Agustín, in a match for the 6th round of the Primera Division. Recent head-to-head statistics favour the home team, who have achieved 3 wins and 1 draw in their last 4 encounters.

Given the home advantage, Melgar may have a crucial edge, particularly as Ayacucho has displayed significant discrepancies in their home and away performances.

Currently sitting in 9th position, Melgar has accrued 5 points from a record of 9 wins, 9 draws, and 5 losses. In their penultimate outing, they drew at home against ADC Juan Pablo II (1-1). In their last match, they fell to Sporting Cristal (1-0) away. The team’s form away from home has been consistent, with their last 30 games yielding 4 wins, 6 draws, and 5 losses on the road, compared to 6 wins, 4 draws, and 5 losses at home. In this year’s championship, Melgar has garnered 15 points out of a possible 30, with 4 wins, 3 draws, and 3 losses from their last 10 home games. The most frequent first-half result at their home ground has been 1-0, occurring in 5 out of 11 games. However, they have shown vulnerability defensively, conceding in 9 of their last 10 matches in this competition. Of the 23 games played, Melgar conceded the first goal 9 times but managed to turn the scoreline around in 4 instances. In their last 11 home matches, they conceded 4 of their 10 goals during the closing minutes of the first half (31’–45′).

Despite a shaky start to the Clausura, winning only once, Melgar is determined to improve their standing. They will be looking to assert dominance at home, even if the match lacks high technical quality. Tactical discipline and solid defence are crucial for Melgar to secure a victory and enhance their campaign.

Team analysis: Ayacucho

The visiting side currently lies in 13th place, having obtained just 4 points from 5 wins, 4 draws, and 14 losses. In their last match, they lost to Alianza Lima at home (0-1), following an away defeat to Sport Huancayo (3-1). Remarkably, Ayacucho has recorded more positive results on the road than at their home ground. In their last 30 matches, they achieved 4 wins, 2 draws, and 9 losses away, scoring a total of 18 goals while conceding 28. Conversely, their home record stands at just 2 wins, 2 draws, and 11 losses, with 15 goals scored and 27 conceded. Over the last 10 league matches, Ayacucho secured 3 wins, 2 draws, and 5 losses, accumulating 11 points from a possible 30. Defensively, they have struggled, conceding goals in 7 of their last 10 games; however, their attack has been more reliable, scoring in 7 of those matches. In their 23 matches this season, Ayacucho has conceded the first goal 14 times and successfully turned the scoreline around only once.

Ayacucho is also underperforming, with just one victory under their belt, and they need to respond quickly to avoid falling further away from the safe zone. When playing away, they will likely adopt a balanced approach, emphasising defensive solidity while looking to exploit counter-attacking opportunities. Although they face challenges, the team must capitalise on any openings left by the opposition to initiate a turnaround. A well-balanced defence and attack will be essential in striving for a positive result in this matchup.
