Two teams with contrasting styles to meet at Estadio Miguel Grau
Odds and predictions:
Sport Boys are the clear home favorites here at 1.7, while 4.1 for ADT and 3.5 for the draw looks too high. However, the likely score prediction isn't a shootout, with Under 2.5 Goals at 1.85 and Both Teams to Score at 1.78 both coming in slightly under the odds.
Tactical approaches:
- Carlos Desio's Sport Boys side are full of verve at the moment, pressing high, playing with a high-tempo and trying to break lines.
- They're a fresh, aggressive side and the stats don't quite show the true identity of Sport Boys, who should really have at least 3 more points on the board.
- 4-3-3 has been their record across the last 10 across all competitions, but that's still a solid run for Sport Boys, one which keeps them firmly in the mix.
- Francisco Usúcar has made ADT much more compact, dense in the midfield and disciplined in their structure.
- They play a much more frustrating brand of soccer where they look to clog the middle of the field and try to nick a few transitions when they can.
Form and head-to-head:
The last meeting between these sides in Liga 1 – Apertura ended 1-0 in ADT's favour, although this one looks a lot closer, as the series is tied 1-1 across the previous 2. Sport Boys have won 2, drawn 2 and lost 1 of their 5 games so far, but ADT have won 3 of their 10 and lost 5, so they'll need to be careful here.
Sport Boys to edge a close game
Sport Boys have won 3 of their 6 at home this campaign, while ADT are without a win on the road. ADT haven't won any of their previous 2 meetings against Sport Boys, which is another reason to lean towards the home side.
Jeremy Canela is the main threat for ADT, as it tops their scoring charts in Liga 1 – Clausura 2026 with 1 goal in 1 match. The likely outcome here is for Sport Boys to just edge a low-scoring affair, as they seem to have more of an edge at home than ADT do on the road.
