General match analysis

Sporting Cristal have a clear home advantage: they win 60% of their home matches, while Sport Huancayo win just 9% of their away games and lose as many as 73%. The hosts average 2.00 goals scored at home with an xG of 1.93, while the visitors concede 2.18 goals per away match and allow opponents an xG of 1.61. Cristal also create significantly more chances, averaging 18 shots and 6.1 shots on target per match, compared with Huancayo’s 10.18 shots and 3.36 shots on target. The hosts’ defence looks more solid, conceding an average of 1.20 goals at home, while the away side score just 1.09 goals per match on the road and fail to score in 18% of such games. Although the last five matches do not give Cristal an advantage in terms of points gained, Huancayo’s very poor away record and the difference in the quality of chances created point towards a home win.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

Seasonal BTTS figures are notably high for both sides: 70% for Sporting Cristal and 73% for Sport Huancayo, compared with the league average of 56%. The hosts should create plenty of chances, as their average xG stands at 1.92, while their opponents concede an average of 2.18 goals per match and allow opponents an xG of 1.61. The visitors’ chances of scoring are supported by their recent attacking form: they scored 7 goals in five matches, recorded 1.69 xG, and both teams scored in 60% of those fixtures. However, Sporting Cristal have managed only 0.8 goals per match across their last five league games, so the risk of a scenario in which the hosts fail to respond remains noticeable. Despite this, Huancayo’s weak seasonal defensive record and the high long-term BTTS frequency marginally support Goal/Goal.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

Sporting Cristal averages 1.92 xG and 18.6 shots per match, while Sport Huancayo concedes as many as 2.18 goals away from home, giving the hosts solid grounds to score around two goals. However, the visitors are likely to be limited by Cristal’s solid defense, which allows an average of just 0.80 xG and concedes only 1.00 goal per match. In their last five matches, Cristal scored just 4 goals, and only 20% of their games went Over 2.5 goals; Huancayo’s figure stood at 40%. At the same time, the hosts have not scored more than two goals in a single match this season, while 90% of their games and 64% of Huancayo’s matches finished Under 3.5 goals. The projected total of 2.60 goals points to a scoreline around 2:0 or 2:1, making Under 3.5 goals the strongest selection.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

A draw at half-time followed by a Sporting Cristal victory is the most likely outcome, as the hosts were level after 45 minutes in 7 of their 10 matches, including 80% of their last five. Cristal defend very solidly before the break, conceding an average of just 0.3 goals, while Sport Huancayo concede 1.0 goal on average in the first half away from home. After the interval, the hosts’ advantage should increase: they score an average of 1.0 goal in the second half, whereas the visitors concede 1.18, and Huancayo have not won a single second half this season. Cristal’s eventual success is also supported by a clear difference in overall season quality: the hosts average 1.8 points per match and have an xG of 1.92, compared with just 0.45 points and an xG of 1.14 for the visitors. Sport Huancayo have lost 73% of their matches and concede 2.18 goals on average, so a level start is more likely to turn into a home win than an eventual share of the points.
