Sporting Cristal and Alianza Lima meet in the league with both on 25 points from 13 matches, but their pre-match form is clearly different. The hosts lost 1-3 in their latest league game, while the visitors won 1-0 and are on a three-match winning run. Sporting Cristal are still clearly the higher-scoring team this season (26 goals from 13 matches), and at home in the first half they often have the edge, leading or drawing at half-time in 10 of 11 matches, but their defence has shown cracks recently. Alianza Lima, meanwhile, arrive in hot form, on a three-match winning run, and are tighter at the back (12 goals conceded from 13 matches), but their attack still relies mainly on the late stages of games. This game is likely to be an exchange of punches, with the hosts having more possession and trying to press from the first half, while the visitors will wait for counter-attacking chances and focus on solidity at the back. If Sporting Cristal can maintain their home attacking standards, they have a high chance of not losing this game.
