Alliance Lima is one step away from a potential national title final

In the Accumulated scoreboard, they have taken the first place with a significant difference in points. Despite that, the team is fighting to also win the Clausura Tournament and avoid extending the championship to a final match.

Thinking about a possible final for the national championship

The team could have a sensitive loss due to the accumulation of yellow cards. It involves midfielder Jesús Castillo, who has taken over the starting position in Mauricio Larriera's scheme this season.

In the past matches against Deportivo Municipal, Sporting Cristal, Universitario, and UTC, the player was affected by receiving bookings. For the next match, Alliance will face Deportivo Garcilaso, and if the player plays (by the coach's decision) and receives a yellow card, he will not be able to play the final.

Another player who was also at risk was Gino Peruzzi, but against ADT, he was booked again, so he would only be out of the match against Garcilaso and would be fit for the title match.

After the results obtained in the 18th round of the Clausura Tournament, Universitario would be the strongest candidate to play a possible final against Alliance Lima. So far, the team has positioned itself in first place after accumulating 36 points.

According to the Peruvian tournament schedule, the first final would be on November 4, while the second and definitive match would be scheduled for the 8th of the same month.
