Here's every little thing you need to learn, and a little bit more, before the Academia Cantolao - UTC Cajamarca game!

Insights:
  • Academia Cantolao have the fewest points from losing position (0) in Primera Division

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting UTC Cajamarca have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 7-13-15 (win-draw-loss) from 35 matches.

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