Boca Juniors: Key Players and Absences
Boca Juniors boast a formidable lineup with seasoned players. Edinson Cavani, known for his lethal finishing, continues to be a focal point in their attack. His presence in the box can be menacing for any defense. Meanwhile, Marcos Rojo, a rock at the back, provides stability with his experience and defensive prowess. Midfield dynamism is offered by Rodrigo Battaglia, whose work rate and ability to break up play are crucial for Boca's tempo. Adding flair to the wings, Alan Velasco's speed and trickery can unsettle even the most organized defenses.
