This clash is between two of Diego Maradona’s first teams and they are both missing some key players ahead of this clash, but who would cope better?
These two teams have a strong rivalry and the home crowd would still remember Carlos Tevez’s horrific tackle on Ezequiel Ham in 2015, and although the former Manchester City star would not play in this game, the home fans would be cheering their team to achieve an unlikely win here.
Their bid to cause an upset in this game has not been helped by the fact that Leonardo Pisculichi and Lucas Barrios out injured and El Bicho is in one of the poorest form of his career. They have won none of their last 3 games, scoring in only of those matches.
Boca Juniors are in top form as they march towards another league win this season. They have won 14 of their 17 top-flight games this season to enhance their reputation as the best team in the Argentine top flight.
They are 9 points clear at the top of the league as they have netted the average of 2 goals per game this season while conceding just 0.47.
