If the main concern of Alianza Lima at this moment is to defeat ADT and maintain their unbeaten record at the Alejandro Villanueva stadium, they cannot overlook what will be the end of the Clausura Tournament 2023, where they will visit Deportivo Garcilaso for matchday 19. In this sense, Mauricio Larriera already has his first headache: Gino Peruzzi has been suspended after receiving his fifth yellow card.
All of this happened in the 17th minute of the first half, when Janio Pósito received the ball in the central zone and led a counterattack by the tarmeños. Seeing that the defensive line was unbalanced, the Argentine had to stop the forward with a tactical foul and, without hesitation, Bruno Pérez booked him.
Now, aware that the match against Deportivo Garcilaso is crucial, Larriera will need to find a substitute for Peruzzi. Despite his lack of continuity, Edinson Chávez could be the choice of the Uruguayan coach. The last time 'Chaveta' started for Alianza Lima was in the defeat against Sport Boys, on matchday 4 of the Clausura.
Alianza Lima vs. ADT: what lies ahead for them
After this match in Matute, Alianza Lima will play again next week when they visit Deportivo Garcilaso for matchday 19 of the Clausura Tournament 2023 in the Liga 1 Betsson. Although this match has not been scheduled yet, it is known that it will be played at the Inca Garcilaso de la Vega stadium and will be exclusively broadcasted for all of Peru by Liga 1 MAX, while it can be streamed on Liga 1 Play.
Since the 'blanquiazules' are still in the fight for the national title, it is of utmost importance that they manage to make an impact in Cusco. Let's remember that the last time both teams faced each other was in the Apertura, with a 3-2 victory for Alianza Lima with goals by Hernán Barcos (2) and Aldair Rodríguez; Jonathan Betancourt and Santiago Giordana scored the consolation goals for 'Garci'.
ADT, on the other hand, will also play again next week when they host Carlos A. Mannucci for matchday 19. This match has not been scheduled yet by the Liga Profesional de Fútbol, but it is known that it will take place at the Unión Tarma stadium and will be broadcasted by Liga 1 MAX for all of Peru, while it can be streamed on Liga 1 Play.
