Boca Juniors' fixture revealed for 2026 Torneo Clausura

Boca Juniors fans eagerly await the club's return to competition in the 2026 Torneo Clausura, hoping for a significant improvement after a disappointing first half of the year. Under new coach Rodolfo Arruabarrena, Boca aims to close out the year on a high note. The team, placed in Zone A, will begin their campaign away against Deportivo Riestra. A highly anticipated Superclásico against rivals River Plate is scheduled to take place at Boca's home ground, the Bombonera. Boca's path through the tournament involves potential playoff matches, with the possibility of playing at home up to the semifinals, provided they advance. The final match will be held at a neutral venue. Beyond the immediate goal of winning the Clausura, Boca faces the crucial task of accumulating points for the Tabla Anual, the annual standings. This is essential for securing a spot in the 2027 Copa Libertadores, especially if they do not win any tournaments this year. Currently, Boca sits third in the annual standings with 30 points, trailing Independiente Rivadavia and Estudiantes de La Plata. In addition to the Clausura, Boca is competing in the Copa Argentina and Copa Sudamericana. They have already advanced to the round of 16 in the Copa Argentina and will face O’Higgins of Chile in the Copa Sudamericana playoff.
