Alianza Lima vs Sport Boys tips and predictions

Alianza Lima still so hard to oppose

Alianza Lima are currently in third place as they get ready for 13th place Sport Boys.

It might not be very long after the 2:00am kick-off before the visitors realise what they are up against. When these sides lock horns it's almost certain to deliver some goals so it could be fun for the neutrals.

Alianza Lima are strongly favoured to win this and it's not likely they'll bottle it.

Alianza Lima will certainly like what they see in front of them. On the road the visitors have sometimes looked ill-prepared; they've lost 5 of their last 6 away campaigns. They've seemingly lost this one too.

This home team is playing some lovely football and they're making new fans in the process. Alianza Lima have scored three or more goals in 4 of their recent 10 matches while consolidating with some good defensive stats. They have only conceded an average of 0.5 goals over their last 17 games at home. Their keeper has been saving everything and they won't give much away in this one.

In front of goal the visitors haven't been firing on all cylinders. They've been goalless in 9 of their last 12 away matches. Once battle commences the data could be irrelevant. If so they'll need to have worked on their finishing if they are to get the job done. Don't bank on it though.

Alianza Lima have won 12 of the last 18 fixtures between these sides. Maybe the form book can go out the window, but the head-to-head stats could be an indication of what will unfold.

Perhaps this doesn't ignite due to the obvious favouritism for Alianza Lima. The BTTS No could be sensible.
