Universitario de Deportes will go for the three points against Sport Huancayo in a always complicated stadium due to the altitude
The team of Jorge Fossati will have important absences due to the absences of José Carvallo and Álex Valera, who have already joined the Peruvian national team for the tour against Japan and South Korea.

Given these absences, the Uruguayan coach has already taken action, starting with the goalkeeper position where Diego Romero is the chosen one. It is precisely the young merengue player who has spoken about his second opportunity of the season to show his worth.
"We are focused, we know that there is no excuse so we are going to look for a good result. I have been preparing, the possibility is given to me again and we are going to give it our all", were his words for Ovación.
It should be noted that Diego Romero has a contract with the crema team until 2024, while José Carvallo only until the end of 2023. If the experienced goalkeeper decides not to renew, the young value could have more minutes in the next season.
How much is Diego Romero worth?
The substitute goalkeeper of Universitario de Deportes, who will have minutes against Sport Huancayo, is valued at 325 thousand euros according to the specialized website Transfermarkt.
