Head-to-Head
Sport Boys and Atletico Grau drew 1-1 in Callao four months ago in the last league meeting between the clubs.
Sport Boys
- Sport Boys are without a win in three home games, drawing two and losing one, and have managed to score only once at home in Liga 1 - Apertura.
- The Warriors need to be resolute at the back and then look to win the game in transition or from set pieces with fast players on the break.
Atletico Grau
- Atletico Grau have lost their last two away games and have not scored away from home in Liga 1 - Apertura.
- Atletico Grau play with more tempo than Sport Boys and will come at the home team with a well-organised pressing game while trying to build up in numbers to create chances.
- Angel Comizzo has kept the same personnel and tactical system at the Pierinas club since his appointment in August 2023 so the team will be familiar with his plans to press from the front and play vertically.
Key Players
- Jostin Alarcon is the team’s biggest threat going forward and he is the only player to score for them so far in the Liga 1 - Apertura with a goal in their opening 1-1 home draw against Los Chankas CYC.
- Neri Ricardo Bandiera is their most prolific attacker with two goals in his last five appearances, which accounts for all of their goals during that run.
Betting Insights
- Sport Boys are favourites at 2.14.
- Atletico Grau are available at 3.63 and the draw is priced at 3.02.
Prediction
- Neither team has won any of their last five matches in all competitions, recording two draws and three losses.
- Another draw could be on the cards with a possible narrow win for the home side.
- The Under 2.5 goals market at 1.53 looks solid enough to support here, as neither team has shown any real attacking thrust this season.
