Boca faces a decisive match at La Bombonera with the obligation to win to keep its chances alive in South America’s top club competition. Find out all the details of the match and how to watch it from anywhere in the world.

The team from La Ribera is facing a true “final” in the 2026 Copa Libertadores group stage. On Matchday 5 of Group D, the Xeneize will host Cruzeiro at the ever-imposing Alberto J. Armando Stadium, in a vital clash to remain in control of its own destiny in the race to qualify for the round of 16.

The team coached by Úbeda comes into this continental clash after several difficult weeks. It is coming off a major blow after being eliminated by Huracán in the round of 16 of the Torneo Apertura. On the international stage, there is no margin for error either: Boca lost its last two outings (against Cruzeiro itself in Belo Horizonte and away to Barcelona of Ecuador), dropping to third place in the standings.

However, La Bombonera will once again play its own separate match. With Leandro Paredes as the team’s main football leader, the blue-and-gold side will go in search of all three points. The Xeneize will have key absences: Adam Bareiro has been ruled out through injury and Santiago Ascacibar through suspension. Given these absences, Milton Giménez is emerging as one of the main alternatives in attack, Tomás Belmonte in midfield, and Malcom Braida will come in for Marcelo Weigandt in defense.

For its part, Cruzeiro, coached by Artur Jorge, arrives in Buenos Aires as the leader of Group D with 7 points (level with Universidad Católica of Chile). Despite its strong Libertadores campaign, the Belo Horizonte side is going through a poor run in the Brasileirao, where it is hovering near the bottom of the table. The match will be refereed by Venezuelan official Jesús Valenzuela.
