A tale of two clubs in transition
Our Asociacion Deportiva Tarma vs Comerciantes Unidos prediction is influenced by Tarma's recent form, drawing 2 and losing 3 of their 5 matches in all competitions since Orlando Romero took over on January 1, 2025. Orlando Romero has made his side more disciplined defensively, allowing them to hold their own against opponents while looking to strike on the counter. Tarma are an incredibly rigid unit, often setting up in a 4-4-2 or 4-5-1 and Jhonny Vidales leading the line.
Romero’s new style of play is still a work in progress but it appears to be paying dividends for Tarma in the results table. After a 0-0 draw away to Deportivo Garcilaso, Tarma followed that up with a 1-1 stalemate away to Los Chankas. Vidales has scored both of the hosts’ 2 goals from their last 5 games and looks their most likely source of joy on Friday.
Regarding the Asociacion Deportiva Tarma vs Comerciantes Unidos odds, Comerciantes Unidos is a different proposition entirely, playing at a much quicker pace and pressing high up the field, attempting to unlock the opposition with their ability on the ball. Daniel Ferreyra took over as head coach on May 21, 2025. In their 5 games under him to date, Comerciantes Unidos have lost 4 and won 1.
The head-to-head record favours the home side
After a goalless stalemate 8 months ago in the Liga 1 – Clausura 2024, this Asociacion Deportiva Tarma vs Comerciantes Unidos preview highlights that Tarma will fancy their chances of taking 3 points on home soil on Friday, especially given they have already secured a win and a draw in their 2 recent head-to-head encounters. Comerciantes Unidos will need to lean on the sharpness of Matias Sen to score, with him being responsible for 2 of their last 3 goals.
The odds are heavily skewed
With Tarma as heavy favorites at 1.37, there is simply no value in backing them outright to win the match. For those interested in Asociacion Deportiva Tarma vs Comerciantes Unidos betting tips, Comerciantes Unidos will be coming into this one as 9.4 underdogs, so we will side with them in the double chance market. However, we do believe that Tarma will have the quality to edge a tight encounter in the end.
The ‘Under 2.5 Goals’ market also looks to be of value, as this is a fixture that tends to produce low scoring games, and our second Asociacion Deportiva Tarma vs Comerciantes Unidos prediction is that Tarma’s tendency to keep it tight against their visitors should see the under come through.
