Boca Juniors: data and current form
Xeneize arrives in high spirits after beating River Plate in the Superclásico in “El Monumental” (0-1). The only goal was scored by Colombian Sebastián Villa after a rude defensive error. With this result, he climbed to the top of zone B, a place he shares with Estudiantes de La Plata.
At the same time, the team from La Ribera will begin their participation in the Copa Libertadores. Next Tuesday he will travel to Colombia to face Deportivo Cali.
Boca’s numbers in the League Cup: 4 successes, 2 draws and 1 loss, with 9 goals scored and 6 conceded as own goals. At home: 1 victory, 1 equality and 1 setback, with 3 goals for and another 3 against.
The coach Sebastián Battaglia thinks of an eleven with several substitutes taking into account that a few days later the cupbearer debut will take place.
A probable: Agustín Rossi; Marcelo Weigandt, Jorge Figal, Marcos Rojo and Agustín Sandez; Alan Varela and Esteban Rolón; Norberto Briasco (or Villa), Aaron Molinas and Exequiel Zeballos; Louis Vazquez.
Sarandí Arsenal: data and current form
Prior to the double date for South American qualifiers, El Ass got a good point in his visit to Defense and Justice (1-1). The statistics say that he has gone 5 games without winning, with elimination included by the Argentine Cup against the humble Chaco For Ever (after penalties).
The truth is that with 7 points, the whole of El Viaducto is in the lower part of its zone. His only victory at this start of the tournament was receiving Huracán (2-1).
Arsenal’s numbers in the League Cup: 1 win, 4 draws and 2 losses, with 8 goals converted and 9 conceded. As a visitor: 1 equality, 2 setbacks, 3 goals for and 5 against.
Coach Leonardo Madelón has not yet given any indication of the initial formation. Midweek included several surnames that have not been headlines in a friendly that El Ass beat Lanús as a visitor (1-2).

Prediction Boca Juniors – Arsenal de Sarandí: win Boca Juniors
With the momentum that comes from having won the Superclásico, Boca will face this commitment with the idea of continuing on the right path. Although he will bet on an alternative formation, the “substitutes” of El Xeneize have sufficient quality so that the absences are not noticed.
On the other side appears the irregular Arsenal, a team that, thanks to Madelón, has not yet found its true identity. Beyond the fact that Florencio Varela deserved a little more, it must be said that he played with one more man for 30 minutes.
If there is no surprise, Boca will keep the 3 points. Perhaps he does not shine from his game, but with the individualities he is enough to be the protagonist in the Argentine tournament. In the Copa Libertadores it will be another question, but that is something that we will analyze in a few days.
