Alianza Atletico Preview
Alianza Atlético will play its first home match in the Apertura 2023 this Sunday after a bittersweet start. The team coached by Argentine Carlos Desio started wit 2-0 win over César Vallejo, but the home team evened the match with goals in the 72′ and 86′ minute.
Now, the team will be playing without midfielder Fernando Ibáñez, who was sent off the previous date.
Last season, at home, Alianza Atlético finished as the eighth-best team in the Clausura 2022 with 20 points in nine matches played. Those numbers were achieved thanks to the team’s good goal ratio, after scoring 18 goals and conceding nine.
Possible Lineup (3-4-3): Diego Melián; Manuel Gazoza, Angelo Pizzorno, Piero Serra; Miguel Cornejo, Jesús Mendieta, Guillemo Larios, Roger Torres; Nestor Fernández, Jeremy Canela, José Manzaneda.
Universidad Técnica de Cajamarca hopes to play its first game of the season after taking the three points in matchday 3 due to Cienciano’s non-attendance. The team’s absence was related to the problems several clubs are having with television distribution. Since UTC’s rival did not show up to play on the previous date, and the team now shares the lead with eight other teams.
Although its opponents played a good game last weekend and performed well at home during the Clausura 2022, Marcelo Grioni’s team also did not perform badly away from their home field. Indeed, it is the sixth-best team playing away, with nine points in 10 matches played.
Possible lineup (4-2-3-1): Patrick Zubczuk; Eric Canales, Gianmarco Gambetta, Juan Randazzo, Luis Trujillo; Cristian Mejía, Carlos Diez; Erinson Ramírez, Matías Abisap, Gaspar Gentile; Facundo Peraza.
JefeBet Prediction
In the last four matches played between the two, these teams have shared victories, two wins per side.
Last season, Alianza Atletico won its home match against UTC in the Apertura tournament, while the Cajamarcan side responded by defeating them at home in the Clausura tournament.
Similarly, two of those matches ended with at least three goals, and in those same games both teams scored goals.
Prediction: Both teams score (ALI 2 – UTC 2).
