Gameday in Estadio Único Madre de Ciudades for a quarter final between Boca & Patronato.
Boca will be without Marcelo Weigandt who is injured and without Sebastian Villa who is suspended by the team.
On their side Patronato should be full line up. Hector Canteros is back from injury.
This game is very important for Boca, as top team in Argentina they want to win the league and of course the cup.
On the previous league game they faced Tucuman and we could see some change in their line up as Nicolas Orsini, Frank Sabra, Lisandro Lopez & Rodrio Montes. It means Boca made a big focus on this cup game and rotated.
According to press conference, Boca should go with : Agustín Rossi; Luis Advíncula, Carlos Izquierdoz, Marcos Rojo, Frank Fabra; Diego González or Rodrigo Montes, Jorman Campuzano, Agustín Almendra, Juan Ramírez; Norberto Briasco & Nicolás Orsini.
Battaglia hasn't an easy task to choose the 11 for this game for the midfield, there is some doubt but the line up I put will not be too much different.
Normally he will use the usual 4-3-1-2 but it will not be possible that he will change to a 4-4-2 who wouldn't be a bad formation to face Patronato.
Boca is also a team aiming to use a lot of young players but for that kind of game I expect Battaglia to prefer experience and not the younger.
It's the first time of Boca's history that they will play in this province or Argentina so they were welcomed by their fans today
On their side Patronato didn't rotate for this cup game, they played against Estudiantes and had just Matias Palavecino as big change. Patronato is really not good recently and are in big trouble with 6 games in a row without a win.
Of course Patronato is never an easy team to face but for sure they are far of Patronato. i'll not talk too much about them because there is not too much things to say except that they are weaker with players as Junior Arias, Martin Garay, Sergio Ojeda etc.
If we just check about the worth difference of both teams, we have Boca with 86M€ and Patronato with 8,5M€.
Cup game are never easy but clearly if Boca plays this game seriously and at their best level they will win without too much problem something like 2-0.
