Sport Boys will host Alianza Lima on Saturday, August 8, at the Estadio Miguel Grau in Bellavista in a fourth-round match of the Liga 1 Clausura. It is a meeting that lands at a useful moment for both sides: Alianza Lima arrives as the favorite, while Sport Boys has found momentum with two straight wins.
The timing matters because the Clausura table is still taking shape, and Alianza Lima is already among the early pace-setters with 7 points after three rounds, level with Melgar. Its start has included wins over Sport Huancayo and Alianza Atlético, plus a draw with Comerciantes Unidos. Sport Boys, by contrast, opened with a loss to Los Chankas before beating ADT and Atlético Grau, a run that makes this more than a routine road trip.
There is also recent history between them. In February, Alianza Lima beat Sport Boys 1-0 in Matute, and Renzo Garcés scored the only goal that day. That result still frames the matchup now, because it showed how narrow the gap can be even when Alianza Lima carries the stronger form on paper.
The broadcast setup is straightforward for viewers, but it splits by region. The match will be shown by L1MAX in Peru and by Fanatiz in the United States, Argentina and the rest of Latin America. For fans in Peru, that means the game is available on the local rights holder, while viewers outside the country will need the regional platform carrying the feed in their area.
That makes Saturday’s game more than just another Clausura date. Sport Boys has earned the right to test an Alianza Lima side that is still chasing early control of the race, and the answer will come at the Estadio Miguel Grau, where the next point swing can sharpen the picture at the top as quickly as it can change it.
