LA PLATA, Argentina (Interstat) — A surging Boca Juniors visits a defensively stout Estudiantes La Plata in a pivotal Primera Nacional clash on Sunday, Nov. 2, 2025.

Boca (5-4-6) enters the match buoyed by a 3-1 road victory over Barracas Central on Oct. 27, a result that snapped a two-game losing skid in league play. Despite a middling record in the domestic competition, the Buenos Aires giants boast a strong 14-9-11 record across all competitions this season.

They face an Estudiantes side (7-4-2) that has been difficult to break down, conceding just 12 goals in 13 league matches. The hosts are unbeaten in their last four Primera Nacional outings, including a 2-0 win over Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata on Oct. 19. Their overall record stands at 8-4-5.

The matchup pits Boca’s potent, if inconsistent, attack against Estudiantes’ organized defense. Boca’s recent form has been a rollercoaster, with a 5-0 win over Newell’s Old Boys on Oct. 5 preceded by a 2-1 loss to Defensa y Justicia.

Estudiantes has shown resilience, with key wins over Defensa y Justicia and Racing Club, but also suffered a 2-0 loss to Central Cordoba in late August.

Despite the home team’s defensive strength, the Interstat game simulator projects a lopsided 4-0 victory for the visiting Boca Juniors.

Following this match, Boca will prepare for the Superclásico against River Plate on Nov. 9, while Estudiantes travels to face Tigre.
