Boca vs River: Superclásico Set for November 1, 2026

The second Superclásico of 2026 now has a date, a venue and a kickoff time. Boca vs River is set for Sunday, November 1, 2026, at 15:00 Buenos Aires time at La Bombonera. TyC Sports reported that the Liga Profesional de Fútbol, the body that runs the Argentine top division, confirmed the schedule for Fecha 15 — round 15 of the Torneo Clausura 2026 — and with it the year's second meeting of the country's biggest rivalry. Olé published the same programming, with the clásico at the top of the list.

The Superclásico is the name the Boca–River rivalry carries in Argentina. The fixture appears in the Fecha 15 schedule as an interzonal.

Same kickoff, two clocks

FotMob lists the match for "Sun, November 1, 6:00 PM UTC," which is the same moment as 15:00 in Buenos Aires, the hour both Argentine outlets give; SeatPick also shows 15:00 local on its fixture list.

It is worth separating the status of each source. TyC Sports and Olé both describe the Fecha 15 programming as confirmed and official by the Liga Profesional; no fixture document or club statement appears in the available material, so the official status rests on the LFP's release as those outlets report it. Resale data is a different category: SeatPick's "$500+" starting price and its count of 267 available tickets were live figures on a secondary marketplace at the time of publication, not official prices and not evidence that the clubs have opened sales.

April's clásico: one goal from Paredes at the Monumental

November's match is a rematch. Boca won the first Superclásico of 2026 1-0 at the Monumental, with a goal from Leandro Paredes, according to Yahoo Noticias. La Nación had reported that game as scheduled for Sunday, April 19 at 17:00, an interzonal of round 15 of the Torneo Apertura 2026, the first tournament of the Argentine season, with River hosting and tickets going on sale to members on Tuesday, April 14.

Home advantage therefore flips: River travelled in April, Boca host in November. Beyond that, the sources do not report form, standings or squad news that would support a forecast, and none is offered here.

Independiente and Racing come first

Neither club walks into the clásico off a free week. Boca's previous league match is away to Independiente on Sunday, October 25 at 17:00, according to a SeatPick fixture listing. River's is at home to Racing the same day at 19:15, per Olé's schedule.

Fecha 15 continues outside the clásico's spotlight: Newell's–Unión and Belgrano–Barracas Central both kick off at 18:30 on November 1, Lanús–Gimnasia (Mendoza) at 20:45, and three more games follow on Monday, November 2, including Atlético Tucumán–Argentinos and Independiente Rivadavia–Banfield at 21:15. Olé's Fecha 15 list begins on Friday, October 30, and an OneFootball preview republished by Yahoo Noticias describes Fechas 13, 14 and 15 as the last rounds before Jornada 16 closes the group stage.

What nobody has confirmed yet

For the Boca vs River match on November 1, no broadcaster, streaming arrangement or appointed referee appears in the available material. The April clásico was scheduled to air on ESPN Premium and TNT Sports, La Nación reported at the time; that says nothing about the November rights. Nothing is reported on injuries, suspensions or probable lineups for either squad. Official sale windows for Boca members and the general public are not confirmed in these sources either.

The date is fixed; the details around it are not

A confirmed kickoff turns an open question into a planning problem. Both clubs now have a fixed target at the end of a week that begins with Independiente and Racing, and the league has a headline fixture locked into its calendar.

The open question is the practical one: when the sale opens and who carries the broadcast, neither of which the LFP's schedule addresses.
