UTC has already been mathematically relegated from Peru's Liga 1 2026 after a 1-0 loss to Cienciano on October 18, worsened by a 10-point deduction for unpaid debts, leaving the club with just 10 aggregate points. The fight for the second relegation spot in the final aggregate table now focuses on ADT (25 points, -14 goal difference), FC Cajamarca (26 points), and CD Moquegua (28 points), while Comerciantes Unidos (31 points) holds a modest cushion. Five Clausura matchdays remain, with recent results including Moquegua's win over Cajamarca and ADT's defeat to Los Chankas tightening the margins; goal difference and head-to-head results will serve as key tiebreakers among the bottom sides.
