The last date will be played next weekend and there will surely be simultaneous matches. Everything will be defined on the last day, as has rarely been seen. academic seeks to force a definition with alliancewhile the intimates – Apertura champions – want to win the title directly. Melgar and Cristal They are also there, with a chance.
Therefore, below we will tell you in detail all the possible scenarios that can occur in this definition of a heart attack in the Clausura Tournament.

Let’s go for the leader: academic. The creams are the most benefited of the date despite tying. The equality of Alianza at home and the defeat of Cristal, put the meringues as top favorites. In fact, they depend on themselves.
The statistics accompany them. The U has not lost at home for 15 games, since February of this year when they lost 2-1 to Alianza Lima in the Peruvian soccer classic. With Fossati at the helm, they have managed to turn the Monumental into an impassable fortress. In fact, they only conceded three goals and scored 32.
MelgarFor its part, it needs to win in Juliaca against a Binacional that will fight to remain. But it does not depend only on that result. If so, they will add 38 points and will be one unit above the meringues. If they only tie, the U would have to lose by two goals or more to secure first place by goal difference: they are currently +17 and the U +18.
Lima Alliance He is third with 34 points and the equation is simple: . The intimates depend on two results, which makes their aspirations to achieve the championship very complicated. Any result other than the one mentioned above would cause the title to be decided in the playoffs. The blue and white are already in the final.

The other option for the Rimenses is to reach the semifinals, and for that they must win, for the ‘U’ to lose and Melgar to win the Clausura. Thus, celestes and arequipeños would face each other for a place in the final.
Another scenario that would favor the light blues is that the creams tie and win the Clausura, Melgar that they do not add more than one point in Juliaca. Thus, Cristal -by winning- will secure second place in the accumulated table and will clash in the semis against Universitario.

|---|---|---|---|
| University vs. Huancayo (36 pts. +18) | Champion | You should expect Melgar to lose or draw | He must hope that his pursuers lose |
