Estudiantes' back-to-back defeats put an abrupt end to their four game unbeaten run as they continue to fail to find consistency to push further up the table.
Given their Copa de la Liga success, Estudiantes will be disappointed by the manner of their start to the campaign, but they have the squad depth to amend it.
Boca Juniors will want to put their controversial Copa Libertadores exit to Cruzeiro behind them as quickly as possible with domestic football the full focus now.
Milton Gimenez's goals at Banfield have already translated to Boca which has been a fine addition to the side.
