Alianza will hope to utilise their home advantage to help bridge the gap to today’s opponents. The home side are currently 7 points behind Tauro.
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Lpf match only four days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Independiente.
This stadium uses artifical turf, unlike Tauro's home stadium. The visitors last 31 games on artifical turf have ended in 10 wins, 11 draws and 10 losses.
These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.

Overall Lpf stats at home this season for Alianza are 3-0-2 (wins-draw-losses). Alianza has recorded two wins in a row here at Estadio Oscar Suman Carrillo, increasing their hopes of victory in this match.
