Comerciantes Unidos: defensive problems
Comerciantes Unidos' most recent Primera División match ended in a 3-1 home win over Cienciano. Although the visitors had more attacks - 93 to 74 - the hosts created more dangerous attacks, 47 to 22, and had nine shots on target to two.
Comerciantes Unidos have been unable to find any consistency, managing just three wins alongside five defeats and two draws in their last ten matches. Their attack is not the problem - across that run they have averaged 1.7 goals per game. The trouble is that their defence has been conceding at exactly the same rate, regularly cancelling out what the attack produces. Away from home things have been particularly difficult, with opponents frequently exploiting space in behind. As a result, at least three goals have been scored in six of Comerciantes Unidos' last seven away matches.

⭐ Editorial Prediction
Melgar look the clear favourites, but expecting an easy win without conceding would be unwise. The hosts have a powerful attack, yet they regularly allow opponents to score at their ground. Comerciantes Unidos are far from solid defensively, but up front they are capable of capitalising on mistakes. That combination creates the conditions for a high-scoring match in which both sides will have chances. Predicted score: 2-1. Main bet: Both Teams to Score - Yes.
