Boca face Racing away in Clausura round six | OneFootball

Boca face Racing away in Clausura round six at the Estadio Presidente Perón tonight at 21:30. According to LaNumer12.com.ar, the Xeneize arrive buoyed by thrashing Recoleta to reach the Copa Sudamericana quarter-finals, although domestic results still disappoint and a win is increasingly needed.

The clásico in Avellaneda is a firm test for Vasco Arruabarrena’s side. Racing need a home win after three consecutive defeats and are stuck low in group B.

Boca have suffered only one league loss but have just one win. They have six points, from three draws and a victory, so taking three in Avellaneda would lift both their position and confidence.

Arruabarrena plans to retain most of the starters who beat Recoleta in Paraguay, while Leonel Flores could start instead of Sebastian Villa. Leandro Paredes, Marco Pellegrino and Leandro Lozano remain sidelined. Lautaro Di Lollo and Braida are also not fully fit to be options.

Nicolás Ramírez will referee, with Fernando Echenique on VAR. ESPN Premium will televise the match.
