Boca will face Racing.

This will be the second time they meet in this championship, as they already played each other in the regular phase at the same venue where the semifinal will be held. That day, October 8, they drew 1-1 with a goal from Solari for the visitors and Giménez equalizing for the Xeneize.

In this way, Boca and Racing will meet again in the 222nd clásico in the history between both teams. It’s worth noting that the team from La Ribera has a wide lead in the record with 94 wins, 53 draws, and 74 victories for those from Avellaneda.

The path of Boca and Racing

Boca knocked out Talleres de Córdoba, whom they beat 2-0 in the round of 16. In the quarterfinals, they eliminated Argentinos Juniors with a 1-0 win. Both matches were decided in regular time.

The Xeneize played both of their playoff matches at La Bombonera.

It was a tougher road for the Academia to reach the semis. In the round of 16, they eliminated River Plate in a match with five goals: they won 3-2 with a last-minute goal. In the quarterfinals, they needed extra time and penalties after a goalless draw against Tigre.
