Will they risk it for the Superclásico? The 2 Boca players one booking away

Boca's defeat against Belgrano de Córdoba left more than one concern for the Xeneize coaching staff. Not only because they lost points at home, but also due to the captain's booking, which leaves him on the verge of suspension.

Leandro Paredes was booked by referee Pablo Dóvalo near the end of the first half for a foul on Lucas Passerini, and that yellow card leaves him one away from a one-match suspension. Previously, he had been shown a card against Huracán, Aldosivi, and Central Córdoba. Therefore, he is now one away from missing a match with Xeneize.

Paredes was booked against Belgrano and reached his fourth yellow card.

Just like Leandro Paredes, Boca already had another player on the verge of a yellow card suspension. Lautaro Di Lollo was booked against Banfield, Rosario Central, Central Córdoba, and Defensa y Justicia.

In this way, both Leandro Paredes and Lautaro Di Lollo will have to be careful in the match against Barracas Central—which will be played on Monday, October 27 at 4:00 p.m.—or deliberately get booked to miss the following match—against Estudiantes de La Plata—and go into the Superclásico against River with a clean slate.

The opponents Boca still has to face

Boca still has the postponed match against Barracas Central, which will be played on Monday, October 27 at 4:00 p.m. at the Claudio Fabián Tapia stadium. Then, on the weekend of Sunday, November 2, they will visit Estudiantes de La Plata at UNO. After that, they will host River at La Bombonera on Sunday, November 9. Finally, on Sunday, November 16, they will close out the regular phase at home against Tigre.
