Arruabarrena confirms Boca XI to face Vélez in Copa Argentina last 16 | OneFootball

Rodolfo Arruabarrena has confirmed Boca Juniors’ starting XI to face Vélez in the Copa Argentina last 16 tonight. According to LaNumer12.com.ar, kick-off is at 21:15 at the Mario Alberto Kempes in Córdoba, with TyC Sports broadcasting.

Boca arrive buoyed by a last-minute win over Lanús at La Bombonera in the Clausura. They are targeting a quarter-final place and aiming to keep their campaign alive on all fronts.

They reached this round after defeating Gimnasia de Chivilcoy in 32avos and Sarmiento in 16avos.

Vélez have not found their stride in the Clausura, have no international commitments and come in on four consecutive draws. The Barros Schelotto twins’ side advanced by eliminating Deportivo Armenio and Gimnasia y Tiro de Salta.

There are three changes from the team that faced Lanús, enforced by Milton Delgado’s muscle injury, with Tomás Belmonte stepping in. Leandro Paredes returns in place of Camilo Rey Domenech, and Leandro Lozano starts ahead of Dylan Gorosito.

Boca’s XI: Álvaro Montero, Leandro Lozano, Lautaro Di Lollo, Facundo Herrera, Lautaro Blanco, Santiago Ascacíbar, Leandro Paredes, Tomás Belmonte, Alan Velasco, Miguel Merentiel, Sebastián Villa. Head coach: Rodolfo Arruabarrena.
