Boca Juniors, one point behind Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata, will receive Huracán this afternoon, who are three off the top, in a key crossover in the Professional Football League (LPF) title fight. The match is played from 19:00 at the Bombonera, with Yael Falcón Pérez as referee and TNT Sports television.
Boca are going through their best time of the semester since they spent nine games without losing between the tournament and the Argentine Cup, with seven wins and two draws.
After the rotation that Hugo Ibarra has organized to visit Lanús, the TD will change formation again: Facundo Roncaglia will come in defense for the suspended Carlos Zambrano; and Marcos Rojo of Nicolás Figal, who will be preserved due to a trauma to his right knee.
Alan Varela will play for Esteban Rolón, Martín Payero for Óscar Romero, who together with Aaron Molinas will be in midfield, with Darío Benedetto and Luca Langoni in attack.
At the Huracán, Diego Dabove would make two changes on the flanks: Chilean Guillermo Soto could return to replace Ismael Quílez and Guillermo Benítez would do the same in the left sector for Lucas Carrizo.
Boca far exceeds Huracán in the history of official tournaments, with 92 wins against 33 and 51 draws.
The “Globo” won 1-0 at La Bombonera last March and cut twelve consecutive winning years without beating Boca at home.
