It's the first game of the new season for Universitario and Alianza Lima. The canvas is blank, the possibilities endless.

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.

These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.
