Alianza Lima Faces Tough Test Against Sport Huancayo in Clausura Clash

Huancayo, Peru – Alianza Lima will face Sport Huancayo at the IPD Stadium in Huancayo this Monday, October 20th, in a crucial match for the 15th round of the Liga1 2025 Clausura Tournament. The game is scheduled to kick off at 13:15 (COL/PER/ECU) and 15:15 (ARG/UY/PAR) and will be broadcast live on L1 Max.

Alianza Lima, buoyed by their recent 3-1 victory over Sport Boys, are aiming to solidify their hold on second place in the overall season standings (Tabla Acumulada) to secure a direct spot in the playoff finals. The victory against Sport Boys saw goals from Paolo Guerrero, Piero Cari, and Pedro Aquino.

Coach Néstor Gorosito returns to the Alianza Lima bench after serving his suspension. A key change to the lineup could be the inclusion of Piero Cari in the starting eleven, after his impactful performance against Sport Boys.

Sport Huancayo, coming off a bye week, will be looking to bounce back from their 2-1 defeat to Sport Boys in their last match. A key threat for Huancayo is Janio Pósito, the Argentinian attacker with a previous stint at Alianza Lima, who could be a major danger to the Alianza defense.

The last encounter between these two teams ended in a goalless draw back on June 14th at Alianza Lima’s home ground, Matute. This match is expected to be a hard-fought battle as both teams vie for valuable points in the Clausura. Alianza Lima will be aiming to continue their winning form, while Sport Huancayo hopes to leverage their home advantage and disrupt Alianza’s ambitions.
