Boca vs River LIVE: the Xeneize team clashes against the 'Millionario' team this Sunday, March 20 for the 7th date of the League Cup Professional Argentina 2022 at the Antonio Vespucio Liberti stadium, Monumental in Buenos Aires.

The superclassic Boca vs River will take place on matchday 7. The same one that the organizers of the Argentine League Cup called the date of the classics or interzonal, which consists of duels between historical rivals and representatives of the gaucho football of Zone A and Zone B of the tournament.

The classic Boca vs River will have two Peruvian footballers as protagonists. Defenders Luis Advíncula and Carlos Zambrano will be starters at the Monumental de Núñez.

In the case of Boca Juniors full-back Luis Advíncula, his presence in the starting team is the reconfirmation of his good moment in Argentine football. However, for Carlos Zambrano who returned to the call against Huracán on date 5, but did not play. On the next day, he was a substitute and entered as a replacement for Carlos Izquierdoz who was injured after 25 minutes of play. And now the defender will start in the classic Boca vs River.

Precisely, Carlos Zambrano stood out in the last classic River vs Boca on October 3, 2021, which was played at the Monumental stadium for the 14th date of the Argentine League Cup. The 'Leon' entered and scored a goal with a headshot in the minutes of the discount of Xeneize's 2-1 defeat to the Millonario draw that was ahead of the scoreboard with a double by Julián Álvarez.

Carlos Zambrano will play his fifth Argentine classic Boca vs River since his arrival at the club in January 2020. For his part, Luis Advíncula will participate in his third duel between Xeneize and the 'Millionario' since his signing in July 2021.

Boca Juniors coach Sebastián Battaglia has his starting eleven confirmed for this Sunday. The Argentine coach defined his team in practice on the eve of the classic and cleared doubts in the midfield with the inclusion of Aaron Molinas instead of Paraguayan Oscar Romero.

In the Boca Juniors attack, striker Darío Benedetto returns to the starting team after his absence in the last match against Estudiantes de La Plata due to a muscle injury. The striker replaces his partner Luis Vasquez.

For his part, River Plate coach Marcelo Gallardo confirmed the starting team two days in advance of the classic against Boca Juniors. The DT announced at the same eleven that he beat 4-0 to Estudiantes de la Plata. With this, defender Hector David Martinez will continue to be out due to an injury to his knee and Leandro Gonzalez Pirez will repeat in the back. Another known casualty is that of Felipe Peña Biafore who suffered a serious knee injury.
