These two sides last met in the Copa Libertadores back in 2013, playing two group stage games the first ending 0-1 to Nacional and the second finishing 0-1 to Boca. Both sides are no stranger to this competition, Nacional having won it three times in their history whilst their opponents Boca Juniors have won it six times, the most recent in 2007. Both will be looking to get a good result here to take their advantage into the second leg, whilst Nacional will have to be careful not to concede an away goal that could settle the game if it ends in a draw after both legs.

Boca Juniors look the stronger team based on the two sides form, losing only two games in their last nine, however, their away form does not look as good, they have only won two away games in their last six whilst drawing one and losing the remaining three.
