Alianza Lima will have to win its last 2 matches in the Copa Libertadores and hope that Fortaleza does not score three points. On the other hand, Colo Colo would have to lose their last matches to keep the 'intimos' alive, since if they manage to score even 1 point, they would automatically eliminate the team led by Carlos Bustos.
The 'intimos' also have possibilities of qualifying for the Copa Sudamericana, if they defeat Fortaleza in the next match with a difference of 2 goals, the 'blanquiazules' would surpass them in the standings and would be placed in third place, with 1 match to go, where the Brazilians will visit the 'cacique' and the team from La Victoria will face River Plate in Argentina.
In the fifth match of Group F of the Copa Libertadores, Alianza Lima will host Fortaleza at the National Stadium on May 18, and one day later, Colo Colo will visit River at the Monumental Stadium in Nuñez.
When will Alianza Lima play in Liga 1 again?
The team led by Carlos Bustos will face Universidad San Martín on Monday in the Peruvian tournament. Then, they will clash on Saturday, May 14 against César Vallejo, and later, they will decide their future in the Copa Libertadores when they host Fortaleza on Wednesday, May 18.
