It's a new born Lpf campaign and Alianza are yearning to get competitive here at Estadio Prof. Javier Cruz. Costa del Este are coming to town and this looks to be a compelling season kickoff.
This is a game between neighbours, usually meaning increased motivation and significance.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Alianza form and stats
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Alianza have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 8 games) they have won 5 times, drawn 1 and lost 2.
There will be little rest for Alianza after this match as they are travelling to UMECIT for a Lpf game in only four days.
Costa del Este form and stats
Costa del Este are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 3 wins, 3 draws and 4 defeats. From a total of 10 matches.
The schedule is very tough for Costa now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Lpf game at San Francisco is waiting in only four days.
Head 2 Head
