The Professional Football League officially announced the change of date and time for the match between Boca Juniors and Unión de Santa Fe on matchday 11 of the 2026 Torneo Clausura, which will be played at La Bombonera. The change is due to the Argentina National Team’s friendlies during the FIFA international window.
The match corresponding to the eleventh round of the domestic competition will now be played on Friday, October 2 at 9:30 PM on the Alberto J. Armando pitch. As a result, the rescheduling cancels the original plan, which had the game set for Sunday the 4th at 7:15 PM.
The restructuring pushed by the tournament organizers is a direct response to the Argentina National Team’s international fixtures window. La Albiceleste will play three friendlies during the FIFA dates, and the goal is for the public’s attention to be focused on Lionel Scaloni’s team.

Xeneize will host Tatengue at La Bombonera.
In this way, Boca will have a tight schedule to coordinate its weekly preparations ahead of a crucial stretch of the championship, with other competitions still in play, since the Xeneize is competing on all fronts, with the Copa Sudamericana as its main objective.
In the same statement, the governing body of Argentine football also confirmed the schedule for the twelfth round of the local tournament. In that context, the clash between Boca and La Gloria will take place on Friday, October 9 starting at 7:30 PM in Córdoba.
This run of matches scheduled for Fridays will push to the limit a team looking to reach the Copa Argentina semifinals, while already being at that stage in the continental competition. Likewise, it is aiming for the highest possible position in the overall table and a place in the Torneo Clausura playoffs.
