Boca will receive Racing tonight from 9:30 p.m. in a classic charged with emotion that will be the exclusive match of date 14 of the Professional Soccer League, with the Xeneizes looking for their first victory at the domestic level with Jorge Almirón as DT and the Academy with the mission of putting an end to a negative series. Of course, the return of Fernando Gago to the Bombonera after the Racing titles facing his former club.
Boca has barely 15 points in the Professional League and has not won for almost a month, when they beat Barracas Central 3-0 as a visitor on March 31, with Mariano Herrón as interim manager.
Racing, for its part, with 18 points, is going through a losing streak of one point over the last 12 it has played, with losses against Gimnasia (3-1), Newell’s (1-0) and the most recent against Atlético Tucumán (3- 1), and in the middle a draw in the classic with Independiente (1-1), plus a success over Aucas from Ecuador 3-1 in Avellaneda, for the Libertadores.
These results raised questions about DT Fernando Gago, who remains in office supported by two successes against Boca that meant two Cups, first at the end of last year when he won the Champions Trophy in San Luis, and then at the beginning of 2023 when he defeated him in Abu Dhabi, for the Super Cup, in both cases 2-1.
