Claudio Úbeda has finalized the Boca Juniors squad ahead of the upcoming match against Platense. This matchup is set for Sunday at 19:30 at La Bombonera. The lineup features notable changes from the previous game, where Boca faced a defeat against Vélez.
Cavani and Janson Return to Boca Squad
A major highlight of the squad is the return of Edinson Cavani. The Uruguayan forward is part of the roster for the first time this year. His last official appearance was on November 30, when he played against Argentinos Juniors, contributing 27 minutes to the team’s 1-0 victory.
Lucas Janson also returns after recovering from a Grade 2 muscle injury. He had been a starter during the season opener and is eager to rejoin the team. Coach Úbeda has tested him in training, and a decision about his starting position will be made before the match.
Ongoing Absences from the Squad
However, not all players will be available. Carlos Palacios and Lucas Blondel remain sidelined. Palacios has not fully recovered physically, while Blondel is absent due to a tactical decision by the coach.
