River vs Boca, towards the Superclásico, LIVE: line-ups, calendar and everything you need to know

Superclassic: two who miss it

There are two suspended players who will not be able to be present at River-Boca because they were expelled in the last round, and both stand out for playing in midfield and giving lucidity in attack: José Paradela, on Millo’s side, and Martín Payero, in the Xeneize.

The Superclásico operation: 1,400 policemen

A total of 1,400 Municipal Police officers will participate in the security operation for the Superclásico between River and Boca, which will be played next Sunday from 17:30 at the Monumental stadium. This is 150 troops more than those prepared for the last superclassic played on the same stage. This increase is linked to the increase in the capacity of the Monumental stadium, which after the latest reforms has increased from 65,000 to 84,000 people. The stadium doors will open four hours earlier, at 1.30pm, which is why the authorities recommend arriving well in advance to avoid crowds.
