Football Bet of the Day: More champagne football from Cristal

Sporting Cristal v Alianza Lima
Sunday 22:00

Chile 0 Argentina 0 in the Copa America last night.

History for Chile, who went on to win the penalty shootout, but an altogether different lesson for us. When will we learn not to expect goals in South America?

Next week, perhaps. In the meantime, Sporting Cristal are playing Alianza Lima in the Peruvian Primera Division and we wouldn't want to be anywhere else tonight.

Both teams have scored in all three of Sporting Cristal's home matches so far, with each of the last two bringing 3-2 wins for the hosts.

Stretching back to October 2013, the record is 16/22 league games at the Estadio Alberto Gallardo with Over 2.5 Goals. More recently, the home side have conceded at least once in 11/14, which raises hopes that Alianza Lima can do their bit to get tonight's match over the line.

The visitors have struck four times in three road games this season. Since last October, half of their eight away matches have delivered Over 2.5 Goals.
