On Monday night, Cesar Vallejo and Atletico Grau go head-to-head at the Estadio Mansiche as both teams attempt to return to form in the Peruvian top flight.
The home team has picked up just 11 points from as many games in the Peruvian Primera Division this season. Cesar Vallejo heads into this game on the back of a six-game winless run, including suffering four defeats, having picked up just two draws.
Their recent league outings have been relatively low-scoring in the Primera Division, as their last three games in the Peruvian top flight have produced under 2.5 goals.
Cesar Vallejo has also found victories hard to come by on home soil in the league of late, having won just one of their previous five home league matches. The fact that they haven’t kept a clean sheet in their last six home matches in the Primera Division has undoubtedly not helped their cause.
Like the home team, Atletico Grau has struggled for form in the Peruvian top flight, as they currently sit in 19th place in the table. Angel Comizzo’s team is winless in their last five matches in the Primera Division, although three of their previous four league games have produced draws.
Although their recent league games have not always been high-scoring, both teams have scored in five of their previous six league matches.
Atletico Grau have been poor on their travels in the Peruvian top-flight of late, as they have failed to win any of their last 12 league away games, including suffering six defeats in their previous eight league matches away from home.
A lack of goals has played a key role in their recent poor away results, as the visitors have scored just one of their last four away matches in the Peruvian top flight.
Forebet predicts that these two out-of-form teams will cancel each other out, with the game ending in a draw.
