Comerciantes Unidos, in contrast, comes from a 3-2 loss against FC Cajamarca, placing them in twelfth place in the table with eight points. The team coached by ‘Cheche’ Hernández has struggled to bounce back in this tournament.
Universitario will be without four of its regular players: Jordan Guivin, Bryan Reyna, Edison Flores, and Aldo Corzo, which has caused reactions among the fans. Journalist Gustavo Peralta reported that Reyna’s absence is a technical decision and that there is still no set date for his debut in the 2026 Clausura Tournament.
