Boca Juniors preview: Trying to end the losing streak
With three losses in a row in the league, Boca Juniors have struggled lately, especially since one of the losses came at the hands of their fiercest rivals, River Plate. Overall, Boca Juniors are only 14th in the Primera Division standings, although they are also just three points behind teams in the zone that leads to continental competitions, so there's still time for Boca Juniors to catch up a bit.
Meanwhile, Cristian Medina, Marcos Rojo, and Gary Medel are out with injuries at this time, while Sergio Romero is suspended.
Predicted lineup: Brey (GK), Figal, Anselmino, Di Lollo, Blanco, Zeballos, Fernandez, Miramon, Zenon, Merentiel & Cavani

Argentinos Juniors preview: Struggles away from home to continue?
In the last eight games in the league, Argentinos Jrs have only managed to win once, so they've been struggling to find their best form lately. More than that, they have been poor away from home this entire season, failing to win any of their seven away games and losing six of them, so their fans are rightfully concerned about the next game against Boca Juniors.
When it comes to team news, Eric Godoy, Sebastian Prieto, and Luciano Sanchez are currently out with injuries.
Predicted lineup: Rodríguez (GK), Coronel, Palacio, Alvarez, Rodriguez, Mac Allister, Oroz, Lescano, Herrera & Veron
