Head-to-head statistics Sporting Cristal - Los Chankas CYC

Sporting Cristal Team Overview
Sporting are currently playing like a typical mid-table side. Their form over the last five matches backs that up: two wins, two defeats and one draw. In the previous round they lost to Sport Boys 0-1. Their attack looks inconsistent. Yes, they are averaging 1.58 goals per game this season, and that figure rises to 2.18 at home. But in their last five matches they have not managed to score more than one goal. It is possible that Sporting will improve defensively. Their opponents have problems in the creative department, so they may concede fewer than their home average of 1.18 goals per game.
Match Results: Sporting Cristal

Los Chankas CYC Team Overview
Los Chancas have hit a rough patch, losing three matches in a row. In the previous round their defence fell apart against Juan Pablo 2, conceding four in a 3-4 defeat. That result looks like an aberration given that their opponents had been one of the worst sides in the league all season. There is clearly a crisis. Over the course of the season the team have shown a reasonably decent attacking output - averaging 1.42 goals scored. But before that game there were two occasions when they failed to score at all. It is worth factoring in the possibility that Los Chancas will struggle again in attack. And given the pressure from the stands, the coaching staff may well decide to set up in a low defensive block.

⭐ Editorial Prediction
Sporting Cristal are considered the favourites for this match, and given the current state of Los Chancas, that pricing makes complete sense. That said, the hosts shouldn't be expected to run up a big score. They can find the net, but the opposition will defend compactly. This won't be an easy ride. Our editorial team expects both sides to struggle to create clear-cut chances throughout the game, which is why we're backing Total Goals - Under 3.5.
