Clash of styles
Huancayo form and approach
Sport Huancayo are 4th in Liga 1 – Clausura 2026 with 7 points from 4 matches, an excellent start for the team from the Peruvian Highlands, keeping them in contention near the top of the table. Richard Pellejero has been in charge of Sport Huancayo since 27th March 2026, and has clearly established a pragmatic 4-4-2 where structure, intensity and direct play on transitions are key.
Huancayo have recorded 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats in their last 5 matches across all competitions, and their most recent Liga 1 – Clausura 2026 outings have been a 1-1 home draw with Los Chankas CYC, and a 2-0 win away at FC Cajamarca, both solid results.
Moquegua situation
UCV Moquegua are 15th in the table with 3 points from 4 fixtures, and the Clausura 2026 table shows that they are still searching for take-off. Jaime Serna, who has been the UCV head coach since 4th June 2024, has built a compact, block-first side that looks to hurt opponents when they leave space in the final third.
Moquegua have recorded 0 wins, 3 draws and 2 defeats in their last 5 fixtures in all competitions, and their recent fixtures in Liga 1 – Clausura 2026 have resulted in a 0-0 home draw with FBC Melgar Arequipa and a 2-0 loss away to Deportivo Garcilaso, a dry run for the visitors.
Moquegua can nick it
Sport Huancayo come into this game as 1.35 favorites, a price that looks on the short side, and there is certainly value in supporting UCV Moquegua at 9.4, or the draw at 5.0.
Last head-to-head in the Apertura 2026 campaign finished 2-1 to UCV, so the visitors will know that they can get something here in Huancayo's backyard, and that should give them hope of avoiding defeat.
A Huancayo win and under 3.5 goals should fit the numbers here, as Huancayo will dominate and dictate the pace of the game on their own turf, and Moquegua do not carry enough threat on the road to cause a high scoring affair.
- Jean Franco Falconi has been key to Huancayo's performance in the Clausura, he is their main creator with 2 assists in 4 appearances and is the man most likely to feed the front line.
- Ronal Huaccha and Edgar Lastre have been Huancayo and Moquegua's main goal threats respectively in the Clausura, but Yorman Zapata, who has 2 assists in 4 games, is Moquegua's creative spark and their best route to creating chances.
