Overview

  • Alianza Lima will travel to Cusco for the Fecha 11 match at the Inca Garcilaso de la Vega on October 11 with plans to depart the day before and stay at Hotel José Antonio.
  • Coach Pablo Guede is reported to be planning rotation of the squad, and journalist José Varela says Kevin Quevedo is a strong candidate to start in place of one of the players who returned from national duty.
  • The starting status of national-team players Renzo Garcés, Marco Huamán and Jairo Vélez is not assured because of selection choices and fatigue after recent international call-ups.
  • Form and venue context matters: Alianza thrashed Cusco 8-0 in April but has had mixed results in Cusco, and the team arrives after a 2-1 friendly loss while Cusco beat FC Cajamarca 2-1.
  • Final lineups have not been confirmed and the selection choices will be watched for their impact on Alianza’s attacking balance and on the tight late-season race for the Clausura title.
