Boca Juniors take on visitors Defensa y Justicia on Argentine Primera matchday 16. The match is taking place at legendary Bombonera on Monday, May 23rd.
Boca Junior are focused on winning Copa Libertadores and they are quite successful so far as the team advanced for the competition semifinals. However, the place in the semifinal was gained only after penalty shootout in quarterfinals against Nacional from Uruguay as both legs ended with 1-1 draws. Boca Juniors have quite mediocre results in domestic league, having gained only 19 points in 15 matches and sitting on the 9th place in the standings. The team is unable to win since the middle of April in four matches in a row, recording two draws and two defeats. Despite quite disappointing record, the team is unbeaten in last six home matches in a row, recording 14 points in home games this season. On top of that Boca are undefeated in 11 home matches in all competition this season, taking seven wins and four draws at their home Bombonera.
