Boca Juniors begin their participation in the Argentine League by receiving Arsenal in “La Bombonera” for Matchday 1 today. Here you will find all the information about this game, such as the preview, storylines, predictions and odds. If you want to watch it live, you can do it in the United States on Paramount + (free trial).
The latest Copa de la Liga champions come at a very good time. Not only for having clearly defeated Tigre in the final, which gave the “Xeneizes” team a new title, but also because despite not having an easy situation, they managed to advance to the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores as group leaders.
In the case of Arsenal, their goals are less ambitious than those of their rival in this Matchday. They did not have a great participation in the Copa de la Liga, despite which they were only 3 points behind the last team that managed to qualify, Aldosivi. They need to get points as they will suffer a lot from relegation next tournament.
