Eight points behind the leaders and with 8 teams up, but still with the objective and obligation to fight this Professional Football League to the end, Boca's technical director, Sebastián Battaglia,
will put an alternative team in Tucumán
but from which he seeks to draw conclusions for Wednesday's game, in Santiago del Estero, against Patronato for the quarterfinals of the Argentine Cup.
What idea does the DT have?
The defense will have the loss of Marcelo Weigandt - torn before Defense and Justice - but the possible return of the Peruvian Luis Advíncula, who left behind the mandatory isolation and this Saturday will fly to Tucumán.
The idea of adding it is, as it has been done, so that the entire squad shares the day to day and also because when they return, Boca will train thinking about the duel against the Entrepreneur team.
For this reason, in addition, Agustín Almendra will travel, who has a muscular discomfort but will be ready for the shock of the week.
In that last line, Lisandro López and the Peruvian Carlos Zambrano may appear, more because of an intention of the DT that they have minutes (they hardly played so far this semester) than because of a need to rotate to one of the few certainties that he has today the team, the central rear formed by Carlos Izquierdoz and Marcos Rojo.

The middle of the court will be a matter to be solved.
If Juan Ramírez plays - for now without rest since he arrived at the club from San Lorenzo - Alan Varela, Esteban Rolón or Jorman Campuzano may be at his side.
The Colombian, who seems to be keeping the place, would have a slight advantage. And next to him the unknown is between Cristian Medina or Rodrigo Montes, a man from Cordoba who may be the 11th player to make his debut at the club in the last year due to a decision by the technical director. Is that he, like so many others, already played against Banfield and San Lorenzo in this League when the boys had to jump onto the playing field after the incidents in Brazil after the elimination with Atlético Mineiro and the disposition of the Ministry of Health to force the isolation of the members of the squad and the coaching staff - still headed by Miguel Russo - who broke the bubble during the incidents in Belo Horizonte.
Can Edwin Cardona be there from the beginning?
It is a possibility because the Colombian returned to the squad after his muscle injury.
But Aaron Molinas is competing for a spot among the eleven starters.
They are the two fighting for that "link" site.
The attack is a great rehearsal.
Because, until now, Battaglia bet on Cristian Pavón, Norberto Briasco and Luis Vázquez.
Together or apart.
But in the last test before the crash in Tucumán he decided to give
Kichán
a
clue
together with Nicolás Orsini, who left the injury behind and needs to add minutes of filming.
Can anyone earn a place in the starting eleven against the Board of Trustees?
As always, returns will solve it.
Battaglia's idea - in addition to winning and not losing ground, especially in the annual table that gives three tickets to the Copa Libertadores - is that many of the players do not spend so many weeks without competition.
Something that has been happening since the Copa Libertadores ended.
Some even reappeared in the Reserve, such as Agustín Almendra and Agustín Obando.
Because the DT knows that at any moment he will need them.
And it cannot have them "braked" when it is their turn.
As it is, and still with doubts to be resolved, Boca would visit Atlético Tucumán this Saturday with Agustín Rossi;
Eros Mancuso or Advíncula, López, Zambrano, Frank Fabra;
Montes, Campuzano or Varela, Ramírez;
Cardona or Molinas;
Pavón and Orsini.
