THE PREDICTION
The home team come into this on the back of a trip to Cesar Vallejo in the league that backed up a 2-0 win over Sport Huancayo before that. Prior to that away trip to Cesar Vallejo; they had won six matches in a row in the league but are already eliminated from the Libertadores with just one point in their first four matches. They come up against a Rentistas side that were hammered 3-0 at home to Fenix on the opening day of the new Uruguayan domestic campaign. They have won two of their last 24 matches in all competitions in a remarkable run that stretches back to November last year. Despite that, they are likely to finish above Sporting Cristal because of their three draws and one loss in their four group matches. Neither side will be confident of victory and the two between them have scored a combined three goals in their matches so far so this should be low-scoring.
