Alianza Lima vs Deportivo Municipal Prediction: Alianza Lima Clear Favorites for Winning

In the upcoming rescheduled fixture of the Peruvian Primera Division, Matchday 2, Alianza Lima will be up against Deportivo Municipal at the Alejandro Villanueva Stadium in La Victoria District of Lima. With Alianza Lima dominating the points table standings, the upcoming matchup could be one-sided from the very start. Lima has won 11 of the 13 matches played and has 33 points so far in the competition. On the other hand, Deportivo Municipal stands 9th with 5 wins and 18 points from 13 matches played. Hence, the points table difference could give us an idea about the two competing team’s standards. The two teams last played against each other in October 2022 and Alianza Lima won (4-1). The last five matches played between the two have produced results, which is why the upcoming matchup is likely to have a conclusive result.

Going in the matchup, Alianza Lima will be confident for winning as it has won four of the last five encounters against Deportivo Municipal. In the last two matches at home, Lima defeated Universidad Cesar Vallejo (2-0) and Carlos A. Mannucci (3-0). Moreover, Lima has delivered quite consistent performances as it has won four of the last five matches played across all competitions. About the scoring, Lima has scored 10 goals, averaging 2.00 goals per game. In contrast to the scoring average, Lima has allowed only 2 goals, averaging 0.40 in the last five played. With the likes of Andrade, Sabbag, and Costa in the lineup, Lima can unsettle the visitors in the very first 10 minutes of play.

Going in the matchup, Deportivo Municipal is coming off a close defeat against Cusco FC (1-0) and previously a win against CD UT Cajamarca (2-0). From the last five matches played, Deportivo Municipal has secured 2 defeats, 2 wins, and a draw. The scoring average is 1.2 goals per game in the last five matches played. With inconsistent performance in the recent matches, Deportivo Municipal has allowed 4 goals, averaging 0.80 goals per game. With the likes of Olivares, Erustes, and Guzman in the team, Municipal will be feeling positive for the match against Lima.

Moving forward in the contest, Alianza Lima are the clear favorite for winning and dominating the visitors. I am expecting a high scoring matchup with only Lima scoring, as in the last two home matches Lima hasn’t conceded a goal. I am predicting a final scoreline of 3-0 at the end of 90 minutes of play.
