In what promises to be a thrilling clash, Cienciano and Melgar prepare to meet again, 8 months after the Primera Division Clausura encounter that concluded in a 3-1 victory for Cienciano. In impressive form, Cienciano recently defeated Caracas, Alianza Lima and Sport Huancayo, bringing their unbeaten streak to five. Still, their backline has lacked consistency, with goals conceded across three consecutive home matches.

Melgar's current performances, in comparison, leave more to be desired, as they prepare for this match after a loss to Lanus in the Copa Sudamericana Group stage on May 7, as they have now gone three matches without tasting victory. Their defense has shown cracks, with goals conceded across five consecutive away matches.

In this Primera Division Apertura showdown, the spotlight will fall on the players who have been pivotal for Cienciano and Melgar throughout the campaign. Cienciano’s attacking options, guided by Carlos Desio, have been bolstered by Carlos Garces, the team’s top scorer, and Christian Cueva, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. Cienciano’s top scorer in Primera Division Apertura, Garces, has five goals this season, while Romagnoli remains their top assist provider in the competition with two. Cienciano’s attacking depth is further showcased by Luis Benites, Gaspar Gentile and Josue Estrada, who have each made valuable contributions this season.

Meanwhile, Melgar’s offensive unit, under Walter Ribonetto’s guidance, has leaned on Kenji Giovanni Cabrera, their main scorer, and Cristian Bordacahar, as they continue to drive the team’s attacking efforts forward. With four goals in Primera Division Apertura, Castro is Melgar’s top scorer in the league, while Bordacahar has been their leading creator in the competition with five assists.
