Boca Juniors - River Plate Boca has set its sights on the championship for a long time, is in first place in the standings at +8 from the second Tagieres, and seems to have no opponent, with the other teams not being able to follow it. It comes from a 2-1 home win over Tigre, while it was preceded by a 2-0 away defeat by the Argentinian Juniors. At the Copa Libertadores, they drew in Peru for their first goalless draw with the Allianz Lima. Today, however, time freezes and everyone's mind is on the derby. Celoto will not have the long-term Gago and Benedetto at his disposal. On the strike line again the triplet Tevez, Pavon, Cardona.
River Plate, on the other hand, is not doing well in the league at all, it is quite low in the standings with 23 points in 19 games, and based on the team's capabilities, this is problematic. He has lost a lot of ground from the first places of the standings to catch a four he will have to make a big demarcation in the remaining games. It comes from a victory at the headquarters of Patronato with 0-1 in the end. While in the Copa Libertadores it was a 2-2 draw in Brazil with Flamengo in the first match of the groups. Coach Marcelo Gagiardo has no absences, where he will line up the best possible eleven.
Boca has a train, has a tremendous psychology, is a match that can be the ultimate goal this year ... But against her eternal rival Riv, who may not be doing a good year but has the quality to do the damage. This is not a simple game ... here we are talking about derby, for a Superclasicco that as we have seen many times everything can happen. I go to the goal on either side.
