Alianza Lima

Alianza Lima, champion of the Apertura Tournament, already knows who will be their opponent for the grand final of the 2023 League 1. It is Universitario de Deportes, who became champion of the Clausura after winning 2-0 against Sport Huancayo at the Monumental Stadium.

Upon knowing the outcome of the second tournament of the year, doubts arose among the fans of both clubs regarding which of the two teams will be the home team in the first leg or will close the series in their stadium. Mauricio Larriera referred to that issue after Alianza's victory against Garcilaso in Cusco, ensuring that he has a clear idea but will make the final decision after listening to everyone involved in the blanquiazul team.

"The other issue (the venues for the finals) is not resolved. I have my convictions and I am quite convinced, but I am going to listen, analyze, and then decide," said the Uruguayan coach in a press conference.

What is Alianza Lima's preference, to start or end as the home team?

According to Líbero journalist, Diego Sotomayor, Alianza Lima's desire is to start the series as the visiting team at the Monumental Stadium and define everything at Matute, but this will only be defined in the next few hours.

"Alianza Lima's intention is to close it at Matute. Tomorrow there will be a meeting. José Bellina and the club's administrator, José Sabogal, will give their impressions, but Mauricio Larriera is the one who will decide," explained the communicator.
