With four matches left for the next classic of Liga 1, the merengue team has in tow the defeat against Alianza Lima and the departure of the second coach so far this year.

First, Uruguayan strategist Gregorio Pérez left office in January for health reasons at the start of the season and without playing an official match after his return to the club in 2021. Later, Álvaro Gutiérrez was dismissed last Monday, April 18.

On an interim basis, the coach Jorge Araujo will be responsible for the first team of Universitario after taking over the reserve of the crema squad.

The provisional strategist will have to turn the team around and get the most points to keep track of the top spots in the Apertura Tournament standings.

On the way and depending on the results, in addition to the possible confirmation of a new coach by the administration, the merengue team with 'Coco' Araujo will face Sport Boys, Atlético Grau, Alianza Atlético and Carlos Mannucci.

The case of Sporting Cristal is more complex because it will face two tournaments simultaneously: the Liga 1 and the Copa Libertadores.

Roberto Mosquera's leaders strengthened with the 6-4 win against Deportivo Municipal and cut the bad streak of three lost matches. In addition, they rose to eighth place in the Apertura table with 15 points.

The celestial team will have the matches against Cienciano, Talleres (Libertadores), Binacional, ADT, Universidad Católica (Copa) and Ayacucho FC.
