Currently, Boca Juniors is in ninth position with 7 points and is 5 points behind the leader Racing. In this Group B of the League Cup, nothing is defined, so the three points are crucial for the 'xeneize'.
On the other hand, River Plate is fourth in the table with 10 points and, for now, remains in the qualification zone for the next stage of the League Cup. The leader of Group A is Huracán with 12 points, so the 'millonario' could take over that temporary leadership.
