Sporting Cristal vs Cienciano Prediction & Betting Tips (27 July)

Having triumphed at their one of the past 5 games of the season, Cienciano have since gone on to lose eight of their next ten matches at the top table of the Liga 1. Sporting Cristal, by way of contrast, have enjoyed 13 wins in their previous 20 home games at this level, so the club from the capital will be confident of putting Liga 1 bottom side to the sword.

This Sporting Cristal side is not exactly renowned for playing exciting football, with a staggering 14 of their previous 17 matches in the Liga 1 delivering no more than a couple of goals. High-flying Cienciano have followed a similar pattern in the top-flight recently, as nine of Sporting Cristal outfit’s last 12 games have also served up under 2.5 goals.

Witnessing goals at both ends has proven to be quite unusual in top-flight fixtures in which Sporting Cristal are the home team, with this being the case in just five of their previous 19 matches. What’s more, title-chasing Cienciano clearly know how to keep clean sheets, managing to do so in 11 of their most recent 17 games at the top table of the Liga 1.
