Alianza Lima Faces Alianza Universidad in Crucial Liga 1 Match

HUÁNUCO, Peru — Alianza Lima and Alianza Universidad are set to clash on Sunday, October 5, 2025, at the Estadio Heraclio Tapia in a pivotal Liga 1 match. The match will begin at 12:00 p.m. local time as both teams vie for crucial points in the ongoing Torneo Clausura.

Alianza Lima, currently sitting in the middle of the table, seeks to maintain their title hopes after a recent victory against Atlético Grau. In that match, Alianza Lima overcame a challenging situation to win 2-1, marking a much-needed boost for the team as they approach the final stretch of the season.

Coach Néstor Gorosito‘s squad will feature key players, including Alan Cantero and the veteran striker Paolo Guerrero. Cantero has emerged as a crucial player for Alianza, particularly in their last match where he played a significant role in securing the victory.

On the other hand, Alianza Universidad comes into this game struggling at the bottom of the league table after a heavy defeat to Sport Huancayo, losing 5-1. With just 21 points, they find themselves desperately needing points to avoid relegation. The team, managed by Roberto Mosquera, has faced increasing pressure and will look to turn their fortunes around in front of their home fans.

Alianza Universidad will miss key players Aldair Perleche, Edson Aubert, and Jack Durán due to injury or suspension, which could complicate their efforts against a formidable opponent like Alianza Lima.

The match is more than just a game; it’s about survival for Alianza Universidad and a chance for Alianza Lima to stay in contention for the league title. The atmosphere is expected to be electric as fans from both sides hope for a favorable outcome.
