Guastatoya get ready to welcome Alajuelense for something different than the ordinary league football: The Concacaf League 8th Finals leg 1 of 2.
It's no vacation for neither Guastatoya nor Alajuelense as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups. Alajuelense could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Primera Division game only four sleeps ago.
Alajuelense have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1300 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
