Cienciano host Los Chankas in the Peruvian league, with the two sides sitting close together at opposite ends of the table, level on 7 points from 9 matches, and both needing three points to pull away from the lower reaches of the table. This game is therefore one where both teams must open up and trade blows to collect points. Cienciano lost their most recent league match, but before that they had a game in which they scored as many as 5 goals at home. Los Chankas arrive in a much heavier state, having lost 5 matches in a row, and in those five games as many as three were defeats by a margin of two goals or more. The visitors' defence has already conceded 23 goals in 9 matches, while Cienciano have conceded 17 in the same number of games. If Cienciano can dominate the ball and push their attack from early in the first half, the game is likely to flow towards the hosts, who will get chance after chance, because Los Chankas will have to drop deep and often concede late in the first half and late in the game. This match therefore tends towards the hosts controlling the game and scoring more than one goal.
