Key players out and youngsters get their chance: Boca squad for Tigre clash | OneFootball

Boca trained this morning at Casa Amarilla and finalized the details to host Tigre this Sunday at La Bombonera. For this match, Claudio Úbeda has significant absences and decided to give a chance to the reserve team youngsters.

The head coach of Xeneize announced the list of players called up for the match corresponding to the 16th round of the Torneo Clausura, the last day of the regular phase. Lautaro Di Lollo will not be able to participate in this duel because he received his fifth yellow card and was suspended for one match.

Milton Giménez will also not be present because he is on the edge and it doesn't make sense to risk him getting another card and missing the round of 16 match, as after the game against the Matador, the cards are reset, and the count starts from zero.

Úbeda finalized the list of call-ups.

These two spots will be filled by Mateo Mendía, central defender and captain of the reserve team, and Valentino Simoni, the top-scoring center forward.

The possible lineup

Throughout the week, Claudio Úbeda trained with the same players, and it is very likely that this will be the team that starts the match against the Matador. Two changes compared to those who started the victory in the Superclásico: Nicolás Figal for Lautaro Di Lollo and Ander Herrera for Milton Giménez.

Úbeda would make two changes in the lineup.

Thus, Boca would line up with Agustín Marchesín; Juan Barinaga, Nicolás Figal, Ayrton Costa, Lautaro Blanco; Carlos Palacios, Leandro Paredes, Milton Delgado, Ander Herrera; Exequiel Zeballos, and Miguel Merentiel.
