Sport Huancayo form and stats

The previous season, Sport Huancayo's league results were 3 wins, 9 draws and 5 losses, ending with 14th spot in the Primera Division. From these 17 matches they scored 18 goals and let in 21. Playing as the home side in the former season Sport Huancayo generated 3-3-3 (win-draw-lost) with 13 goals and 14 conceded. When Sport Huancayo hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Universidad San Martín, Carlos Stein, Sport Huancayo, Carlos Manucci, UTC Cajamarca and César Vallejo), they have won 1 of 2 matches! Nine out of nine points from the last three home games for Sport Huancayo, and the home supporters are ready to scream their lungs out to keep the winning streak alive.

No payout for Huancayo in their previous match, an away game at Sporting Cristal that ended in defeat 3-4. The first setback in the shape of a loss after going undefeated in five league games. A goal frenzy last time out for Sport Huancayo, with a total of 7 goals in the match against Sporting Cristal. Fun stuff to watch! The attacker Huaccha was named "man of the match" for Huancayo with the rating of 8.13/10. Huaccha scored one goal, served one assist, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

Before that match, a win away at Sport Boys.

Atlético Grau form and stats

Let's have a look at how Atlético Grau performed last season in the Segunda Division: They landed a 2nd position in the league table after playing out 6 victories, 3 draws and 2 defeats. In total they scored 18 and conceded 10 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 2 - drew 2 and lost 2 with 9/8 goals scored/conceded.

Home advantage was not enough for Atlético in their previous game as they lost hosting Alianza Lima, 1-2.

A 0-1 defeat away at Melgar before that.
