Universitario battle against Cienciano for glory and sporting success.

Insights:
  • Cienciano have the most scored goals in the first half (11) in Primera Division

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Primera Division. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Sporting Cristal.

Cienciano have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1100 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
