In this way, the technical staff has begun to shape a team with several absences and we will see in the next few days if it ratifies that formation or introduces last-minute changes as happened in previous matches.

The coach knows that beyond the fact that Boca are leaders in their group in the Libertadores, the position in the Lega Professionisti standings is worrying. His team is 19 points behind the leader River, but is also far from the positions to qualify for the Libertadores 2024.

When there are 12 dates left until the end of the championship, Boca are in 14th place, ten points away from qualifying for the top continental trophy and four units of the Copa Sudamericana zone.

Among the possible returns to face the Cordoba team, the return of Benedetto and Fabra stand out, two players who a few months ago were undisputed starters and who will now have to confirm it after being unemployed for between 20 and 30 days.

El Pipa survived a grade 2 tear in his right hamstring. His last match was on April 18 in a home win against Deportivo Pereira 2-1, from Conmebol Libertadores.

While the Colombian defender, injured on April 9 in the defeat against Colón de Santa Fehe has recovered from a sprained internal lateral ligament in his right knee and has been working with the team for a few days.

The other novelties of the team are the return of Martin Payeroafter serving a suspension date in the superclassic, and the appearance of the Paraguayan Romero after three games on the bench.
