A crucial clash at the top of the Peruvian Liga 2 table is set for this weekend as Atletico Grau host CSDC Alianza Universidad in a match with huge promotion implications. The home side have turned their base at the Estadio Miguel Grau into a fortress, using the hot and humid conditions of Piura to their full advantage. They face a talented Alianza Universidad side that has been strong at their high-altitude home but has consistently struggled to replicate that form when travelling to sea level.

This fixture is a classic example of how environmental factors can play a massive role in South American football, creating a compelling scenario for bettors. The main question is whether Alianza can overcome their travel sickness against one of the league’s most dominant home teams. This match preview will examine the key stats, team news, and expert tips for this vital encounter.

Team News Atletico Grau

Manager Ángel Comizzo has the luxury of a fully fit and available squad, which is a significant boost ahead of this crucial promotion “six-pointer.” With no injuries or suspensions to contend with, he is expected to name the same starting eleven that secured an impressive victory last weekend. The team will once again rely on the creativity of attacking midfielder Paulo de la Cruz to orchestrate their attacks and break down the visiting defence.

Team News CSDC Alianza Universidad

The visitors’ difficult task is made even harder by the suspension of their experienced central defender, Juan Morales, who is out after accumulating too many yellow cards. His absence is a major blow to their defensive stability. Their primary goal threat comes from veteran striker Lionard Pajoy, who has been in good form at home but is notably yet to score an away goal this season.
