Cienciano to add to Cantolao woes in Peruvian top-flight

Cienciano vs Academia Cantolao - 18/06/2022

Cienciano to add to Cantolao woes in Peruvian top-flight
1981

On Saturday night, Cienciano and Cantolao clash in the Peruvian Primera Division as both teams attempt to kick-start their league campaigns.

Cienciano

The home side is currently sixth-place in the Peruvian top-flight but heads into this game on a poor recent run of form. Gerardo Ameli’s team has picked up just one win in their previous five league matches, a run that includes three defeats.

Last time out, they suffered a 1-0 defeat at Alianza Lima, a game that saw Cienciano fail to score for the third time in their previous five outings in the Peruvian Primera Division.

Despite that recent poor league form, Cienciano’s recent home form in the Primera Division has remained strong. In fact, they have won four of their last five home matches in the league.

The biggest factor in their recent good league form has been Cienciano’s attacking prowess, as they have scored at least two goals in four of their last five home games in the Primera Division.

Cantolao

The visitors have endured a difficult league campaign. Currently, they sit in 17th place in the Peruvian top-flight table, having yielded just nine points from their opening 15 games of the Primera Division.

A 2-0 home defeat by Deportivo Municipal last time out means that Cantolao has won just one of their last ten matches in the Primera Division. The result also means that the visitors have lost four of their previous six league matches.

Cantolao have also struggled for results on their travels in the Peruvian top-flight, having won just once in their last 11 away games in the Primera Division. A 1-0 win at Cesar Vallejo in their previous away match in the league ended a ten-game winless run on their travels.

What does Forebet predict?

Forebet predicts that Cienciano will record a victory in a low-scoring encounter to further the visitor's woes in the Peruvian top flight.
