Alianza Lima is set to clash with Sport Huancayo at 8 PM in Matute as the Apertura Tournament 2025 reaches its 15th matchday. This game is highly anticipated, with both teams looking to strengthen their positions in the league standings. The blanquiazules, determined to maintain their shared lead in the tournament, are coming prepared with a strong squad that features the return of several key players from international duties.
Coach Néstor Gorosito will have the benefit of an almost full squad, including Guillermo Viscarra, Carlos Zambrano, Renzo Garcés, Erick Noriega, and Kevin Quevedo, all of whom are expected to play significant roles in the match against Huancayo. Meanwhile, veteran striker Paolo Guerrero may start on the bench, as Hernán Barcos appears to be the favored choice for the starting position up front.
Sport Huancayo, currently positioned fifth with 25 points, is another strong contender in Liga 1 and is tightly contesting the Apertura title. Under the guidance of coach Richard Pellejero, they are just three points away from the top of the standings. The team aims to secure a monumental away victory against the “Íntimos,” which would be their first win at Matute since 2011.
This match not only promises to be a battle for points but also a test of resilience and strategy for both teams, as they vie for a place at the top of the league table.
