Black's knight on f6attacks the pawn on e4, and if it advances, then Black's d-pawn joins intothe attack against it.The Alekhine Defence is particularly applicable in encounters againstplayers who are inferior in class, as well as in games with a shorttime-control. This opening is not used so often in practice, so youropponent might lose plenty of time to recollect the opening theory. Thatmight prove to be a very negative factor for him in the forthcoming fight.
