Well disciplined Intimos can dominate deep Bina
Sunday’s Liga 1 – Apertura 2025 clash between Alianza Lima and EM Deportivo Binacional may not be a traditional rivalry, but the stark contrast in their respective playing styles should make for an intriguing game. Our Alianza Lima vs EM Deportivo Binacional prediction considers that Alianza Lima play a structured, possession-based game and build their attacks methodically, while the visitors are much more direct and like to play an all-out offensive game.
Boss, Nestor Gorosito, has instilled a clear playing philosophy since taking over the reigns in December 2024 and has made Alianza Lima one of the most structured and disciplined outfits in the league. Jairo Concha is the creative hub in midfield, where he dictates the tempo, while talisman Jose Paolo Guerrero is the focal point up front with 5 goals in 11 league appearances this season.
Guerrero has scored two of Alianza’s last five goals and looks to be hitting his stride at just the right time for this clash. The hosts currently sit 2nd in Liga 1 – Apertura 2025 with 33 points from 16 games, a result that has them firmly in the top five mix, further supporting this Alianza Lima vs EM Deportivo Binacional prediction.
Binacional boss seeking a happy balance
Claudio Bustamante has only been in the Binacional hot seat since May 2025 and is still trying to figure out the best way to deploy his team’s obvious attacking talent. He has tried to make them more positive but the results have been mixed so far (W1, D2, L2).
Bustamante is probably the perfect choice of manager for a club that are trying to build for the long term and their current league position of 15th (17 points from 16 games) is not a total disaster. Veteran winger Andy Polar is a key component and his pace on the break can unlock any opposition defence, while Gabriel Leyes is their danger man up top with 3 goals in his last 6 Liga 1 - Apertura outings.
The Alianza Lima vs EM Deportivo Binacional preview highlights that Binacional’s away form in Liga 1 – Apertura 2025 (W2, D2, L4) sets off alarm bells and they have never beaten Alianza Lima away, a trend that we cannot see changing on Sunday. Intimos have been a lot stronger at home than away in 2025, with five wins, two draws and just one defeat from eight matches in Lima, which further impacts the Alianza Lima vs EM Deportivo Binacional odds.
Alianza Lima can be trusted to deliver
While Alianza Lima are clearly the superior side to Binacional and cannot be opposed at the current -1000 on the moneyline, this Alianza Lima vs EM Deportivo Binacional prediction is further supported by their dominant home form.
However, a home win to nil offers value in the betting markets. For punters looking for guidance, our Alianza Lima vs EM Deportivo Binacional betting tips point toward backing the hosts.
The clash of styles could see the match hinge on midfield battles and defensive discipline.
