Betting on Club Universidad Tecnica de Cajamarca
If there’s one team that’s taking the smoother path to this match, it’s UTC. Although it’s only getting a few points, the local team from Cajamarca has been adding to its tally in the last five games, with only one ending in a win and the other four in draws. In fact, its most recent draw was against Deportivo Garcilaso last Sunday, a match in which the Gavilán drew by a score of 2-2.
This new draw in the imperial city left Marcelo Grioni’s team in 11th place in the Liga 1 standings with 13 points. Despite not feeling comfortable in the Peruvian rankings, the home team can boast about greatly improving its scoring average.
Possible Lineup (3-5-2): Patrick Zubczuk; John Fajardo, Juan Randazzo, Gianmarco Gambetta; Erick Canales, Stéfano Diez, Cristian Mejía, Luis Trujillo, Joel Sánchez; Facundo Peraza, Oscar Belinetz.
Betting on Club Atletico Grau
On the other hand, Atletico Grau can’t say it’s doing better than its upcoming rival this weekend. Indeed, the team from the city of Piura arrives at this match in 13th place in the Liga 1 standings with 12 points, one less than its opponent.
In its last game, the team led by Daniel Ahmed fought hard for a 1-1 draw against Universidad Cesar Vallejo. The match was literally a fight, due to the controversial brawl that erupted in the final minutes of the game. Luckily, it didn’t escalate further.
Possible Lineup (5-2-3): Raúl Fernández; Manuel Tejada, Eduardo Caballero, Luis Enrique Álvarez, Daniel Franco, Elsar Rodas; Rodrigo Salinas, Joel López Pisano; Oslimg Mora, Fernando Andrés Márquez, Neri Bandiera.
JefeBet Prediction
Atletico Grau isn’t having a good time on the pitch lately. Nevertheless, in the last few matches, its star player and biggest asset, Neri Bandiera, has been able to show his best form. The Argentine striker has already scored five goals this season and aims to increase his tally in Cajamarca.
The Albos is ahead in goal difference with a record of +3 compared to its opponent’s +1. However, we cannot overlook the altitude factor that can benefit UTC, as the match will be played at 2800 meters above sea level. The preview indicates that this game could end up being one of the most exciting of matchday 13, and at JefeBet, we believe it will end in a draw.
