River and Boca could meet at any stage of the Clausura playoffs

River and Boca could meet again in the Clausura playoffs, Argentina's knockout stage, but the round depends on where each team finishes in its group.

River has finished the regular season with 26 points and can place fourth or fifth in Group B. Boca can still finish in several positions in Group A, and the two teams' final rankings will set the possible matchup.

If River finishes fourth, a meeting could come from the quarter-finals onward: against Boca in first or third place, it could happen in the quarters or semi-finals, while second or fourth place would mean a possible final.

If River finishes fifth, a meeting in the round of 16 becomes possible only if Boca finishes fourth.

River would need a very large Barracas Central win over Racing to drop to fifth.

Any playoff meeting from the round of 16 through the semi-finals would be played at Boca's Bombonera; the final venue is not specified.
