Comerciantes Unidos welcome Sport Huancayo for a Primera Division fixture on September 12, 2026, with kick-off scheduled for 18:00 at Estadio Juan Maldonado Gamarra in Cutervo. The hosts enter the match in 12th place, while the visitors are ninth. Although only three positions separate them, both teams have struggled to produce consistent results and protect their goal. Comerciantes Unidos have won just two of their last 15 matches across all competitions, while Sport Huancayo have lost three of their latest five league outings. Their defensive records create the possibility of an open contest: the home side have conceded in eight consecutive games, and the visitors have allowed at least one goal in each of their last six. The previous meeting also ended 1-1 on April 5, 2026, adding another relevant reference point ahead of this Primera Division encounter.

Comerciantes Unidos Recent Form and Key Statistics

Comerciantes Unidos approach this home match after a 2-2 draw against Universitario on September 6. Their last five games have produced two victories, one draw and two defeats, with averages of 2.0 goals scored and 1.6 conceded per match. Those numbers show that the hosts have recently carried a considerable attacking threat, but their inability to limit opposition chances has prevented them from establishing a longer positive sequence.

Across the Primera Division season, Comerciantes Unidos have registered seven wins, nine draws and nine defeats. They are averaging 1.4 goals scored and 1.4 conceded, underlining the balance between their attacking output and defensive record. The wider concern is that the club has conceded 35 goals in 25 league rounds and has gone eight straight matches without a clean sheet. Both teams have found the net in seven of their latest eight fixtures, illustrating how regularly their games have involved opportunities at both ends.

José Eugenio Hernández therefore has a clear defensive issue to address. Comerciantes Unidos have demonstrated that they can score, especially with ten goals across their most recent five matches, but that productivity has often been accompanied by concessions. At home, three of their last 13 Primera Division games finished without a goal, meaning the other ten produced at least one goal between the two teams. The hosts will look to combine their recent attacking average with greater control when Sport Huancayo have possession.

• Last five matches: two wins, one draw and two defeats.
• Recent scoring average: 2.0 goals per match.
• Recent concession average: 1.6 goals per match.
• Season record: seven wins, nine draws and nine defeats.
• Defensive sequence: at least one goal conceded in eight consecutive matches.

Sport Huancayo Recent Form and Key Statistics

Sport Huancayo travel after recording a 2-1 victory over Sport Boys on September 5. That result provided a positive response within a five-match sequence containing two wins and three defeats. The visitors have averaged 1.4 goals scored during that run, but their average of 2.4 goals conceded highlights why results have remained uneven.

Their complete Primera Division record stands at eight victories, five draws and 12 losses. Sport Huancayo are scoring an average of 1.3 goals per game and conceding 1.7. They have allowed 42 goals across 25 league fixtures, while their current run without a clean sheet has reached six matches. Five of their latest six games have seen both sides score, closely matching the pattern recorded by Comerciantes Unidos.

Goals have also been a consistent feature of Sport Huancayo’s league schedule. Each of their last 18 Primera Division matches has produced more than 1.5 total goals, and the same is true of their previous 12 away league games. Those 12 away fixtures have all contained at least one first-half goal. The second half has been similarly active, with a goal scored after the interval in 21 of their latest 22 league matches and in 19 of their previous 21 Primera Division away games.

Richard Pellejero’s side consequently arrive with several strong goal trends but limited defensive security. Their victory over Sport Boys shows they can turn attacking production into three points, yet conceding an average of 2.4 goals across the last five matches leaves little margin for error. Facing a Comerciantes Unidos team averaging two goals over the same recent period could make defensive organisation especially important.

• Last five matches: two wins and three defeats.
• Season record: eight wins, five draws and 12 defeats.
• Goal trend: over 1.5 total goals in 18 consecutive league matches.
• Away trend: over 1.5 total goals in 12 consecutive away league matches.
• First-half trend: at least one goal in each of the last 12 away league fixtures.

Comerciantes Unidos vs Sport Huancayo Match Analysis

The available statistics point towards a match in which both attacks should have opportunities. Comerciantes Unidos have scored at a rate of two goals per game across their latest five fixtures, but they have also conceded in eight straight matches. Sport Huancayo have found enough attacking production to score 1.4 goals per game over their last five, while allowing 2.4 at the other end. Neither side therefore brings a dependable recent defensive sequence into the contest.

The head-to-head record also supports the expectation of a competitive meeting. Comerciantes Unidos have recorded two wins, two draws and one defeat in the summarized series, averaging 2.0 goals scored and 1.8 conceded. Four of the last five direct encounters featured goals from both teams, while the most recent meeting finished 1-1. That history fits the current pattern, with both clubs regularly scoring and conceding.

Comerciantes Unidos have a 42% win probability, compared with 29% for the draw and 29% for Sport Huancayo. However, the clearest shared theme is not simply the possible winner but the vulnerability of both defenses. The hosts have seen both teams score in seven of their last eight games, while the same outcome has occurred in five of Sport Huancayo’s previous six. With the visitors also producing more than 1.5 total goals in every one of their last 12 away league matches, an exchange of goals is consistent with the strongest available trends.
