Universitario de Deportes

Universitario de Deportes suffered an important absence for their match against Real Garcilaso on Sunday, for the eighth round of the Clausura tournament. The Uruguayan midfielder, Diego Guastavino, is the player who will be missing.

Despite training with the rest of the team this morning, the midfielder was left out of the squad due to a injury in the posterior right thigh, according to Depor. The recovery time is unknown.

'Guasta' had a good chance of starting against the team from Cusco. In the match against Comerciantes Unidos, he only played the last 18 minutes with the intention of arriving in optimal conditions for the match at the Monumental Stadium.

Universitario de Deportes has a great chance to return to the top of the Descentralizado table a week later. With Sporting Cristal's draw at home, the difference is two points with the merengues.

The starting eleven for the team has not been confirmed yet. The biggest question fans have is about the goalkeeper. Carlos Cáceda has had good performances in the last two matches, but it is not ruled out that coach Roberto Chale makes some changes.
