Boca Juniors vs Racing Club Prediction and Betting Tips | January 19th 2023

Boca Juniors and city rivals Racing Club will square off at the Hazza bin Zayed Stadium in the Argentine Super Cup on Friday.

Boca booked their spot in the Super Cup as league winners last season. La Xeneizes won the league by two points ahead of their opponents on Friday.

Racing Club won the Trofeo de Campeones by defeating Boca Juniors in a tense final in November. Norberto Briasco put Boca ahead in the 19th minute but this lead was canceled by Matias Rojas' 22nd-minute goal. Extra time was needed to decide the tie, with Carlos Jonas Alcaraz scoring the match-winner in the 118th minute.

The final was mired in controversy, with eight yellow cards and three red cards issued in normal time, while eight cards were dished out in extra time, including seven after the winning goal was scored.

The ill-tempered game ended prematurely, with the referee blowing the full-time whistle owing to FIFA rules that both sides must have at least seven players on the field.
