Betting on UTC
UTC arrives at the fifth matchday of Liga 1 with the aim of making amends. Los Cajamarquinos (“people from Cajamarca” in Spanish) had a bad time when playing against Alianza Atlético in Sullana last week. Marcelo Grioni’s team was defeated 2-0 by Los Sullanences (“people from Sullana” in Spanish) under the almost 36-degree heat of the Northern Hemisphere.
Despite this, the locals have won three points in the Walkover, as a result of Cienciano’s protest on the third matchday. Those three points give the team from Cajamarca the tranquility and serenity of being able to devise a plan that does not allow them to move away from the fight in the Peruvian championship.
Possible Lineup (4-5-1): Patrick Zubczuk; Erick Canales, Juan Randazzo, Gianmarco Gambetta, Luis Trujillo; Cristian Mejía, Carlos Diez, Matías Abisab, Erinson Ramírez, Gaspar Gentile; Facundo Peraza.
Betting on Cantolao
For its part, Academia Cantolao has not had the expected start to the Liga 1 season. In its last match, El Delfín (the dolphin) went through a tough defeat at home when, as a result of a comeback, Universidad César Vallejo managed to defeat the team from Callao by 2-1 on matchday 4. It is worth mentioning that the Peruvian port team is missing defender Michel Acosta, who was shown the red card during the loss to The Poets (Club Universidad César Vallejo).
As a consequence, the team coached by Matías Rosa arrives at this match in a worrying situation: the visiting team is in the second-to-last position in the standings, with no points scored. Therefore, a win is a must if they want to dream of a 2023 far from the fight to avoid relegation.
Possible Lineup (4-3-3): Cristian Limousin; Giancarlo Carmona, Robinson Alzamora, Sebastián Lojas, Alonso Tamáriz; Rafael Guarderas, Christian Sánchez, Diego Ramírez; Álvaro Medrano, Mario Tajima, Gabriel Leyes.
JefeBet Prediction
In this match between two clubs coming off tough defeats, extreme necessity will reign. However, the altitude conditions in Cajamarca will also work in their favor, as it is never easy to play matches in Peru’s carnival capital.
Despite this, a striker like Gabriel Leyes’ goal scoring record could be one of the reasons Cantolao can hope for their first away win in 2023.
Prediction: Both teams score (1-1 draw).
