Boca face a packed schedule: two clásicos and the start of the Libertadores | OneFootball

The Boca schedule for the coming months gives no respite to its fans. Between the demands of the local tournament to qualify for the playoffs and the much-anticipated start of the Copa Libertadores, the team will face a brutal sequence. On the horizon, two decisive classics loom in the team's aspirations in the local competition.

This Sunday, March 22, the Xeneize will host Instituto at La Bombonera from 8 p.m., followed by a break for the FIFA Date. This brief international recess will serve as a breath of fresh air for the coaching staff and will be key days to adjust pieces and recover injured players before the real grind of matches begins.

The fourth month of the year appears to be the most complex and demanding for the Xeneize. It will all start on April 5, when the team travels to visit Talleres in Córdoba. Just three days later, on April 8, Boca will make its long-awaited debut in the Copa Libertadores. The team will begin its continental dream, with the opponent yet to be determined.

The team will have many matches in a short time.

The return to the local scene will not be easy. On April 12, La Bombonera will dress up to receive Independiente in the first great classic of this football marathon. With no room for physical recovery, the squad will have to quickly change gears. On April 15, they will play the second Copa date.

The climax of this grind will come on April 19. The team will cross the street to face River in a new edition of the Superclásico as visitors. To close a frenetic April, the squad will travel to Florencio Varela on the 26th to clash against Defensa y Justicia. Immediately after, on the 29th, they will face the third Libertadores matchday.

The pace will not slow down at the start of the fifth month of the year. On May 3, Boca will travel inland to face Central Córdoba in a key duel. This match against the Ferroviario corresponds to the 9th date of the tournament that was rescheduled.

The Xeneize will have triple competition.

The final stretch of the continental group stage will require maximum concentration. On May 6, it will be time for the fourth Copa matchday, and while the continuity in the continental competition begins to be defined, they must ensure the same locally.

If they advance to the playoffs, the team already knows that the round of 16, quarterfinals, and semifinals will be played before the fifth date of the group stage, while the Apertura final, also if they reach it, will be before the last day of the Libertadores groups.
