Boca vs. Newell's: Match details and broadcast information

Newell's Old Boys will host Boca Juniors on Sunday in Rosario for the third match of the Clausura 2026 tournament.

The match is scheduled for 5 p.m. at the Estadio Marcelo Bielsa, with Andrés Merlos as the referee and TNT Sports providing television coverage. Live updates will be available on canchallena.com.

Newell's, also known as La Lepra, is coming off a narrow 1-0 loss to Independiente. Boca, on the other hand, began their league campaign with a surprising 3-0 defeat against Deportivo Riestra. Their second scheduled match against Estudiantes de La Plata was postponed to August 5 due to their participation in the Copa Sudamericana playoffs, where they advanced to the round of 16.

Newell's coach Frank Darío Kudelka is set to make four changes to his lineup. Thomas Ríos will make his first start, replacing the injured Walter Núñez. Nicolás Goitea will step in for Bruno Cabrera in central defense, and Jerónimo Russo and Matías Cóccaro will replace Martín Luciano and Juan Ignacio Ramírez.

Boca's coach Rodolfo Arruabarrena has opted for three alterations to manage player workload. Lautaro Di Lollo will replace Nicolás Figal in defense, and Dylan Gorosito will take over from Leandro Lozano. In midfield, Leonel Flores will come in for Milton Delgado, shifting the team's formation from a 4-3-3 to a 4-2-3-1.
