Boca faces Racing in Avellaneda as part of Matchday 6 of the Torneo Clausura. Coached by Vasco Arruabarrena, they will be looking for their second win in the local competition after securing a place in the Copa Sudamericana quarterfinals. Hoping to carry over the performance shown against Recoleta, the coach is making changes for the clash with La Academia.

The Xeneize visits Juan Pablo Vojvoda’s side at Presidente Perón Stadium with 2 changes to the starting eleven compared to the last match against Recoleta in Paraguay. Leonel Flores comes in for Sebastián Villa, something that had been speculated beforehand and seemed certain. But Camilo Rey Domenech beat out Tomás Belmonte, and the coach surprised everyone by including him.

It is worth remembering that Vasco still has several absences who will not be available as options for the clásico against Racing. Leandro Paredes, Marco Pellegrino, and Leandro Lozano are still recovering from their injuries, while Lautaro Di Lollo and Malcom Braida are not yet 100% fit to be options for the Xeneize coach.

The match against the Avellaneda side will be tonight from 21:30 at the Cilindro de Avellaneda, with Nicolás Ramírez as referee, Fernando Echenique on VAR, and it will be broadcast on ESPN Premium.
