Sport Huancayo form and stats
Sport Huancayo are yet to win a home game, having collected 1 point from their first two Primera Division games here at Estadio Alejandro Villanueva.
Huancayo shared the glory with Carlos Manucci in their last match, an away game that ended all square 1-1. Midfielder Marcos Lliuya was the best player on the team with a rating of 8.42 (out of ten) in that game. Lliuya hit two key passes, dribled passed the opponent 3 of 5 times and had 61 successful passes (of 70 total).
Preceding that game was the home draw versus UTC Cajamarca that ended 0-0.Early season league goal statistics from Sport Huancayo's 2 home games: 0 goals, 3 conceded.
Sporting Cristal form and stats
Sporting Cristal are still undefeated on their travels in the Primera Division. They have only played two games though, winning one and drawing the other.
There were no winners in Cristal's previous match, a Primera Division home game that ended 2-2 vs Universitario (placed 9th). Gerald Távara got a match rating of 7.84 in that game, top player of the team. Távara dribled passed the opponent 2 of 3 times and had 43 successful passes (of 51 total). Drawing 2-2 against Universitario after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager R. Mosquera Vera needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result.
Before that, Cristal travelled to Deportivo Municipal and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.5 goals so far away for Sporting Cristal, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 3. All from 2 league matches away.
