River Plate vs. Boca Juniors is back on the meu this weekend when these two great rivals meet in the Copa de la Liga Profesional. El Superclasico is one of the fiercest rivalries in soccer and these two Buenos Aires powerhouses have been brought back together by one of Argentina’s main domestic cup competitions. River are unbeaten in eight and without defeat since December while Boca’s loss to Lanus was their first since November. Before that, they were unbeaten in six and kept three straight clean sheets during that run of form. However, River won both Superclasicos in 2023 without even conceding a goal.
