Boca set to play with fans in Mendoza against Independiente Rivadavia | OneFootball

While the team is going through a rough patch with a very worrying negative streak, Boca fans, as history dictates, want to support the team just as much or even more than during victories. That’s why, Xeneize received some good news in this regard, and fans will be happy to know they’ll be able to go to Mendoza for the match against Independiente Rivadavia.

The Argentine Football Association has been working to achieve the definitive return of visiting fans to all stadiums in the country, but for now it’s a gradual process and there are certain matches where the necessary security tests are being carried out to prevent incidents between supporters.

After the clásico against Racing, Boca will have to visit Independiente Rivadavia for the fifth round of the Torneo Clausura and could do so with fans in the stands at the Malvinas Argentinas stadium in the Province of Mendoza, where La Lepra will be the home team for this match, which is highly anticipated due to the specific weight of the Ribera club, even though they are not in a good footballing moment.

The match between Boca and Independiente Rivadavia will take place on the weekend of Sunday, August 17. The specific date and time of the match have not yet been set. What is certain is that security agencies are working to ensure that Xeneize fans can attend.

According to sources close to the security agencies of the Province of Mendoza, Boca could bring between 15,000 and 20,000 fans. That number of tickets will be sold through the Mendoza club’s system, "AccessFan".

Boca’s record at the Malvinas Argentinas in Mendoza

The Xeneize team has a favorable history playing at this venue. Most of the matches were against Godoy Cruz, the club that usually plays as home team in this stadium owned by the provincial government.

However, since Independiente Rivadavia was promoted to the First Division of Argentine football, Boca has already visited them in the tournament held last year. That match ended in a 1-1 draw. The last time Boca visited the Malvinas Argentinas was for the Copa Argentina, against Talleres de Córdoba, when they won 8-7 on penalties after a 1-1 draw in regular time.
