  • Sport Boys have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.

UTC Cajamarca's stadium, Estadio Héroes de San Ramón, has a artifical turf surface. Sport Boys have grass on their own stadium. This might or might not make a difference, and to help evaluate that we give you the recent performance numbers for Sport Boys when playing on artifical turf; 2 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses from seven matches. They have scored {8 goals} in these games and conceded 14.

These teams have little in common geographically as Sport Boys have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

The hosts Cajamarca saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the Primera Division. That game was an away game at Sporting Cristal, so at least UTC Cajamarca are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
