After drawing with Real Garcilaso in the last minute and at least getting one point in the previous match, Sport Huancayo knows they have to win this Saturday against Ayacucho FC to stay alive in the Torneo Apertura.

Alianza Lima is far ahead with 26 points, while Huancayo has 22, so they need to win today in the 'foxes' home by any means necessary and hope that Alianza Lima falls to be just one point behind, with one match left in the championship. But just like the 'Red Matador' from Sport Huancayo, Ayacucho FC also has their own objective.

The 'foxes' from Ayacucho FC, after recovering and winning 1-0 at home against Alianza Atlético, lost 2-0 at the Monumental against Universitario.

That's why the Ayacucho team has stayed in the 13th position in the accumulated table and will seek to win this Saturday to start moving away from the positions that complicate them with relegation. "Beyond the fact that Carlos Preciado (due to expulsion) will not play, we have to focus on having a good match against a complex rival," said Ayacucho FC coach, Francisco Melgar, who mentioned that he may bench new signing Josimar Atoche.
