Sport Huancayo vs Atletico Grau Prediction: Grau Looking Decent to Win Against the Odds

In the upcoming fixture of the Peruvian Primera Division, Matchday 15, Sport Huancayo will be up against Club Atletico Grau at the Estadio Huancayo in Huancayo. According to the table standings of today, Atletico Grau stands 8th with 4 wins and 16 points, whereas Sport Huancayo stands 13th with just 4 wins and 15 points. Sport Huancayo and Atletico Grau last played against each other in July 2022, and the match resulted in a draw (1-1). From the last three matches played between the two, Sport Huancayo has won twice. Continue reading to find out more about the upcoming contest. 

Going in the matchup, Sport Huancayo is coming off a draw against Deportivo Garcilaso (1-1), in which Angel Perez scored an equalizer in the 23rd minute of play. With 60% possession and 13 corners, Sport Huancayo should have done better in terms of winning and scoring goals. With three drawn fixtures and two defeats in the last five matches played, Sport Huancayo’s struggle continues in the Primera Division. With back-to-back draws in the last two home fixtures, Sport Huancayo might even start off with a strategy to play for a draw against Grau. Sport Huancayo will be dependent on the likes of Marcos Lliuya, Carlos Jimenez, and Jimmy Valoyes. 

Going in the matchup, Atletico Grau is coming off a fantastic win against Cusco FC (3-0), in which Rodrigo Javier, Neri Ricardo, and Paulo de la Cruz scored goals. Carrying the attacking form forward, Grau will be looking to at least jump a few spots and enter the top five standings before the end of the Apertura season. With 2 wins, 2 draws, and a defeat in the last five matches played, Grau has done quite better on paper compared to Sport Huancayo and is likely to dominate the matchup against Sport Huancayo. In the last two away matches, Grau has failed to impress its supporters, as they secured a draw against CD UT Cajamarca (1-1) and lost to Universitario Deportes (2-1). 

Moving forward in the Peruvian Primera fixture, the home side will be eager to register a win, whereas Atletico Grau will be hoping to continue its unbeaten run. Grau has scored 9, and Sport Huancayo has scored 6 goals in the last five matches. Hence, I am expecting both sides to score positively and the match total to be over 2.5 goals. The final scoreline is predicted to be 1-2 at the end of 90 minutes of play.

• Atletico Grau to Win for 4.33
• Total Over 2.5 for 1.91
• Correct Score 1-2 for 11
