university vs. Alianza Lima: Who gets to the classic better and why can it be one of the best in recent years?

“The key will be Horacio Calcaterra. If the Sunday afternoon illuminates behind the wheel, the ‘U’ will start walking with the proposal of the Compagnucci blackboard”

when you are a fan of academic, the only game you never want to lose in life is the classic against the intimate. It does not matter to arrive as leader, escort or colero of the table. Against the blue and whites, the honor for the rest of the year is at stake and the peace of mind of walking the following Monday as the winner.

It is clear, the ‘U’ did not hang the candidate poster in League 1 2023 with the scoring debut against Cantolao (4-0) nor did it show terrible signs of play in its stumble against Unión Comercio (0-1) in Tarapoto.

The man

The key will be Horace Calcaterra. If the Sunday afternoon illuminates behind the wheel, the ‘U’ will start walking with the proposal of the Compagnucci blackboard. With 14 confirmed hires (Siucho is still on hold), the squad is still in the process of understanding each other on the field. For this purpose, the signing of ‘Calca’ was vital due to his experience, intelligence and versatility in the game system.

That is why they gave him the number ’10’ shirt, that is why they shield him with an all-rounder like Rodrigo Ureña and for the same reason he is the support for what he can create Martin Perez Guedes close to the rival area. The ‘U’ will seek to define the game with a midfield that is 31 years old on average.

The changes

Hugo Ancajima reaches the rival bottom line more times to leave his position to Aldo Roe deer. Willian Riveros has as much filming in matches of high international caliber as Marco Saravia of experience in the local tournament. José Rivera is a welcome appearance for the cream fan who already knows and knows what Luis Urruti can give on the far left.

Even so, they are the alternative changes that Compagnucci is considering for the classic. And do you ratify the eleven that played in the jungle or bet on new faces?

Attention, Valera

“Carlos Zambrano is the best reinforcement on the transfer market. And he will debut in a clásico”.

Of alliance You can talk a lot, but analyze little. To the base that achieved the two-time championship last year, reinforcements from the Zambrano, Andrade, Costa and Sabbag hierarchy were added. Jales that excite by the name. However, so far this year, only two games have been seen on TV: the ‘Blue and White Afternoon’ and the loss against Atlético Nacional, both friendlies.

The war for television rights left as a consequence that the intimates lost in their debut by ‘walk over’ and that of their victory against Boys last Sunday only a few extracts recorded by fans from the stands were seen. It was not a planned strategy, but those of the chicho salas they will reach the classic almost secretly. And they can surprise.

Zambrano debut

It is the best reinforcement of the market of passes of the League 1. And it will be released nothing more than in a classic.

The ‘León’ will bring experience and output to a defense that is one of the best in the local tournament with Gino Peruzzi to the left, Ricardo Lagos to the right and Santiago Garcia as a duo in the central rear.

If something characterized the team with Chicho, it is the defensive solidity on the bench. In fact, in 2022, counting the finals, the Blue and Whites only conceded six goals in eleven games. Numbers you expect to keep.

variants

If something changed from 2022 to this year in Alianza, it is that Salas has many more variants in attack to rethink a complicated match. Even with multifunctional players.

andrade and laundry they can play in the middle or on the outside; coast and queen They can reverse roles. and behind are Zanelatto, Pinto and Aldair Rodríguez himself.

goal secured

Hernán Barcos or Pablo Sabbag? The doubt about who should be the ‘9’ is still latent. Especially after the last game in which both scored a goal.

That headache is undoubtedly one of the best for the coach. Salas has two top strikers on his squad who could calmly start the actions, although the one who would have everything to start the classic is the ‘Pirate’.
