Watch for injury doubts or suspensions that might influence team selection.

Alianza Atletico has shown a preference for aggressive pressing and quick transitions, which could benefit their goal over markets, but watch for Deportivo Garcilaso's disciplined defensive structure. Expect Alianza Atletico to dominate possession and create numerous corners, making the over 8.5 corners market attractive. The physical style may also increase the likelihood of cards.

Considering recent form, Alianza Atletico tends to start games strongly and has a high chance of scoring first, especially given their dominant head-to-head record. Deportivo Garcilaso often finds themselves behind early and tends to concede goals. If Alianza Atletico scores first, the game might open up, with potential for more goals. Conversely, if Deportivo Garcilaso manages to hold or level the score at halftime, they could settle into a more defensive approach in the second half.
