Prediction published on May 21, 2026 8:01 PM by Dario in Peru - Primera Division | Modified on May 21, 2026 8:01 PM
The upcoming clash between UTC Cajamarca and Sport Boys in the Peruvian Primera Division promises to be a tense and balanced encounter. Both sides share identical records this season, each sitting on 16 points after 15 matches, and both are eager to climb away from the lower half of the table. With their previous meeting ending in a 2-2 draw, another competitive duel seems likely as they meet again in Cajamarca.
UTC Cajamarca come into this fixture after a 2-0 defeat against Deportivo Garcilaso on May 17, extending their winless streak to five matches in the league. Their recent run includes 0 wins, 1 draw, and 4 losses, with an average of 1.0 goals scored and 2.2 conceded per game. Over the course of the season, they have recorded 4 wins, 4 draws, and 7 defeats, averaging 1.3 goals scored and 1.6 conceded per match.
Despite their struggles, UTC Cajamarca remain a side that tends to produce open games. In fact, Over 1.5 total goals have been scored in each of their last 10 league matches, and Over 0.5 goals in the second half have occurred in their last 21 fixtures. Their home form shows a similar pattern, with goals in the second half in each of their last 13 home matches. However, defensive issues persist, as they have conceded at least one goal in their last 12 league outings.
Playing at home, UTC Cajamarca will look to regain confidence and use their attacking intent to pressure their opponents early. Their ability to find the net, even in defeat, suggests they can be dangerous if they manage to tighten up defensively.
Sport Boys approach this match in slightly better shape after a 1-0 home victory over Cusco FC on May 17, ending a three-game winless run. Their recent form reads 2 wins, 2 draws, and 1 defeat in their last five matches, with an average of 1.0 goals scored and 0.8 conceded per game. Over the season, they share the same record as their rivals: 4 wins, 4 draws, and 7 losses, with 0.9 goals scored and 1.3 conceded per match.
While their defense has improved recently, Sport Boys have often struggled in the first half of away games, losing at halftime in 8 of their last 13 away fixtures. This trend could be crucial against a home side eager to start strong. Nevertheless, their fighting spirit and compact defensive structure have made them a tough opponent to break down, especially when they manage to score first.
Sport Boys’ recent improvement in results and defensive solidity could help them resist UTC’s pressure. However, their limited scoring output remains a concern, especially away from home, where they often find it difficult to maintain consistency across both halves.
The historical record between these two sides shows a slight advantage for Sport Boys, with UTC Cajamarca failing to win in their last five meetings (0 wins, 4 draws, 1 loss). Their most recent encounter ended 2-2 on November 2, 2025, a result that reflects the balance and attacking potential of both teams. On average, these matches have produced 3.2 total goals, underlining the likelihood of another open contest.
Given both teams’ current form and statistical trends, this fixture could once again feature goals at both ends. UTC Cajamarca’s attacking approach at home and Sport Boys’ counterattacking ability suggest that neither side will settle for a draw. The key battle may lie in midfield control and defensive concentration, as both teams have shown vulnerability when under sustained pressure.
All indicators point toward a competitive and entertaining match. UTC Cajamarca’s tendency to concede but also score regularly, combined with Sport Boys’ recent defensive improvement, makes this a balanced contest. The statistics show a 46% probability for a home win, 28% for a draw, and 26% for an away win. Meanwhile, the Both Teams To Score – Yes option stands out with a 51% probability, slightly higher than the “No” outcome at 49%.
