Currently sitting in 18th place after 2 draws and 2 losses, UTC Cajamarca has only managed to accumulate 2 points. In their last fixture, they drew 0-0 against Alianza Atlético at home following another draw away to Cusco FC (1-1). This is a team that struggles on the road, as indicated by their record of 6 draws and 9 losses in the last 30 matches away from home, where they have conceded 25 goals and only netted 6. Meanwhile, at home, they have 5 wins, 4 draws, and 6 losses, with 26 goals conceded and 21 goals scored. In their last 10 home fixtures across all competitions, UTC Cajamarca has won 3, drawn 4, and lost 3.
They have not won in the last 4 matches in this competition and have conceded goals in 3 of these 4 games, demonstrating a lack of defensive solidity. A team that has struggled to score first, they have only done so once in their last 15 fixtures. Out of those 15 games, they have never turned around a score when conceding the first goal in the previous 13 occasions. Notably, 13 of the 30 goals they conceded in their last 20 home matches occurred between the 76th and 90th minutes.
UTC Cajamarca will face Sporting Cristal with hopes of improving their performance in the league, aiming to leverage their home advantage to compete against one of the stronger teams in the championship.
Team analysis: Sporting Cristal
Sporting Cristal finds themselves in 8th position after gaining 7 points from 2 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses. The most recent match saw them narrowly defeated 1-0 by Melgar, having also lost at home to Alianza Lima (1-2) previously. As a visiting team, they have recorded 4 wins, 5 draws, and 6 losses over their last 30 games, scoring 27 goals and conceding 22. Alternatively, their home record is quite impressive with 12 wins, 1 draw, and only 2 losses, accumulating 40 goals and conceding just 11. In their last 10 away matches, Sporting Cristal has won 3, drawn 4, and lost 3.
Their defensive solidity has been questionable as they conceded goals in 4 of the last 5 fixtures, yet their attacking prowess is noteworthy, with goals in 4 of those same matches. In 15 games, they have faced the first goal 4 times but have managed to overturn the deficit in 2 of those occasions.
Sporting Cristal will enter the match intent on solidifying their position among the league leaders, seeking to continue the consistency shown in earlier matches to secure another victory and stay firmly in contention for the title.
