River vs. Rosario Central: Day, time, TV, and how to watch online

River Plate and Rosario Central are set to clash this Sunday in a crucial match for Group B of the Torneo Clausura 2026, with both teams desperate for a victory. The game is scheduled for 7:15 PM at the Estadio Monumental, with Nicolás Ramírez officiating and ESPN Premium providing the television broadcast.

River Plate is currently in a precarious position, having lost both of its opening matches in the league. This has placed them at the bottom of their group standings. Their first defeat came narrowly against Barracas Central, followed by another one-goal loss at home to Gimnasia de La Plata. The team is seeking to turn its fortunes around in front of its home crowd.

Rosario Central, on the other hand, has managed to secure one point so far in the tournament. They are currently eleventh in the standings after a goalless draw against Racing in their most recent outing. The team will be looking to improve its position in the group with a strong performance against River Plate.

Historically, the two teams have met several times recently. In the semifinals of the Torneo Apertura earlier this year, River Plate emerged victorious with a 1-0 win. Their league encounter in February also ended in a 0-0 draw. Betting platforms indicate River Plate as the favorite to win Sunday's match, though Rosario Central is expected to put up a strong fight.
