Sport Boys: Away form remains a concern
Sport Boys’ 1-0 away win over Cusco in their latest Primera match defied the statistics: they had just 34% possession and were outshot 24-10. None of Cusco’s seven shots on target resulted in a goal.
Sport Boys have steadied themselves with two straight wins after a poor run. In their last ten Primera matches, they have won five, drawn two and lost three, scoring an average of 1.6 goals per game while conceding 1.2. Away from home, the picture is less encouraging: they have won just twice in seven matches in the current Clausura. Against Universitario de Deportes, the visitors will need to be more solid at the back, as even small defensive mistakes could prove costly.
Match Results: Sport Boys
Prediction for the 1st half
Sport Boys have regularly struggled early in away games. They have conceded at least once before half-time in four of their last six Clausura matches on the road. Universitario de Deportes have the attacking firepower to exploit that weakness. The hosts will want to take control early and avoid a nervy finish, especially with the title race so tight. Pick: Universitario de Deportes to score over 0.5 first-half goals at odds of 1.39*.
Match Result Prediction
Universitario de Deportes are more convincing at home, regularly picking up points even against strong opponents. They have won four of their six home matches in the current Clausura, with three victories coming by at least two goals. Sport Boys are less impressive on the road and do not always cope with the pressure exerted by favourites. The head-to-head record adds weight to the case: Universitario de Deportes are unbeaten in their last 12 competitive meetings with Sport Boys. Our pick: Universitario de Deportes to win with a (-1) handicap at odds of 1.50*.
Total Goals Prediction
Universitario de Deportes have rarely stopped at one goal lately. They have scored at least twice in nine of their last 10 matches, including six of their last seven home league games. Sport Boys could make life difficult for the favourites, but their defence has struggled against stronger opposition. Our pick is Universitario de Deportes to score over 1.5 goals at odds of 1.40*.
Safer Bet
Sport Boys rarely score freely away from home. They have scored no more than once in six of their last seven away matches and average just 0.73 goals per game on the road this season. Universitario de Deportes are also solid at home, conceding an average of 0.8 goals per match. Pick: Sport Boys under 1.5 team goals at odds of 1.13*.

⭐ Editor’s Prediction
Universitario de Deportes cannot afford to ease off in the title race, especially at home against mid-table opposition. Sport Boys have improved slightly, but they rarely look as effective away from home as they do in front of their own fans. The hosts have enough attacking quality to create chances throughout the match, though the visitors could still find the net. Given Universitario de Deportes’ scoring record and both teams’ occasional defensive lapses, this looks likely to produce several goals. Correct-score prediction: 3-1. Main bet: over 2.5 goals.
