Sporting Cristal vs. Universitario will face each otherthis weekend for the thirteenth round of the Clausura Tournament of Liga 1 Betsson. This match is scheduled for Saturday, September 16 and will take place at the National Stadium. In this note from Depor, we will give you all the details you need to know so you don't miss the broadcast of the match: what time they play, schedules around the world and transmission channels.
Sporting Cristal comes to this match after drawing 1-1 with Sport Boys in the 12th round of the Clausura Tournament 2023. Despite playing with one more player due to Jorge Ríos' expulsion, the 'celestes' only managed to equalize the match through Brenner Marlos' goal, as Jesús Barco had previously scored the 1-0 partial.
The team led by Tiago Nunes has gone a total of 19 matches without losing in Liga 1 Betsson, counting the Apertura and Clausura. This means that so far in the second half of the season, they have not fallen. Interestingly, the last time they fell in the local championship was against 'U' at the Monumental Stadium.
Back then, the 'creams' were far superior and prevailed by 2-0 with goals from Martín Pérez Guedes and José Rivera. Let's remember that at that time, the 'rimenses' were not going through a good moment in football and a small crisis had settled in La Florida.
Universitario, on the other hand, comes to this match after defeating Deportivo Municipal 1-0 at the Monumental Stadium. Despite not playing a great game, the team led by Jorge Fossati took the three points thanks to a providential appearance by Edison Flores in the second half.
In addition to adding a result that keeps them in the fight for the Clausura Tournament, the 'merengues' ended a small streak of three games without a victory, after drawing with Atlético Grau (2-2) and Deportivo Garcilaso (1-1), and losing to ADT (2-0). This match against the 'brewers' will be of utmost importance for both clubs to define their destiny in the fight for the national title.
