THE PREDICTION
Both Boca Juniors and Defensa y Justicia managed to pick up respectable 1-1 draws last time out against Independiente and Velez Sarsfield respectively, the top two sides currently in Group B. Only one point currently separates the two teams in the table and sixth-placed Boca Juniors know that victory here would see them leapfrog fourth-placed Defensa in the table. Therefore, a close affair is expected with Defensa likely to keep bodies behind the ball and prioritise not losing the contest first and foremost. However, Boca have found the net at least once in each of the league games so far this season and boast the attacking prowess to breach the Defensa backline here. With home advantage in their favour, Boca may just do enough to edge this one.
