Tigre start Copa Sudamericana campaign v Alianza Atlético to end slump | OneFootball

El Matador will visit the Peruvian side from 11 p.m. needing to return to winning ways after seven matches without a victory.

Tigre will face Alianza Atlético this Tuesday from 11:00 p.m. at the Miguel Grau Stadium, in the opening matchday of the 2026 Copa Sudamericana group stage.

The Victoria team will try to improve its image on the international stage after a negative run that has left it without a win in seven matches.

The current state of the Peruvian team

Alianza Atlético comes into the match after a 2-2 draw against Atlético Grau on matchday nine of the local tournament, where it sits in eighth place with 11 points, eight behind leaders Alianza Lima.

The Peruvian side is making its fourth appearance in the Sudamericana and will look to take advantage of its good form to start with a win.

A forced change of venue

The Peruvian team will not be able to play at its usual stadium because it does not meet CONMEBOL requirements. For that reason, it will play its home matches at Miguel Grau Stadium, located in the city of Callao.

El Matador is going through its most difficult moment of the semester. After a great start to the Torneo Clausura that had it at the top of the table, the goalless draw against Central Córdoba on matchday six marked the beginning of a negative streak.

Since then, the team managed by Diego Dabove has not won again and has gone seven matches without a victory, with four draws and three defeats.

Tigre will look to begin its Sudamericana campaign with a positive result that allows it to regain confidence and become competitive again.
