For the last match, led by Jorge Fossati, they will face Sport Huancayo on Sunday, June 11 at the IPD stadium in the city of Incontrastable starting at 18:00 hours. During this match, the merengues will seek to stay with the three points after falling in the Copa Sudamericana, to close the first part of the championship optimally.
Despite that, the Uruguayan strategist will not be able to count on fundamental pieces that he usually uses in his starting eleven for this match. Next, we will tell you which players will not be present in the last match of the Apertura.
Who will be absent in Universitario?
Juan Reynoso, the coach of the Peruvian national team, recently released the list of called-up players who will be present in the friendly matches of the Blanquirroja against Japan and South Korea. Among the called-up players are goalkeeper José Carvallo and forward Alex Valera.
Both players will not be able to be part of this match, so Fossati will have to take action and put the ideal replacement to guard the goal and strengthen the attack of the team from Ate.
Another player who will not be able to be part of this match is forward Andy Polo. Despite also being one of the players called up to defend Peru in the Asian continent, Polo left the last match against Santa Fe in the Sudamericana with an injury, which left him out of the call-up and unfit to face Huancayo.
Despite that, one of the players who will be able to wear the shirt again is defender Williams Riveros, who missed the last match against Cusco, after receiving a red card against UTC de Cajamarca.
