River Plate have secured fourth place in Zone B of the Clausura and will host the next stage at the Monumental, unless a heavy win in another match changes the picture.
Fourth place and a home tie
Under Ponzio, River will finish fourth in their group, which sets up a round-of-16 tie at their own stadium. The result gives the club a home game in the next phase, provided the standings stay as they are.
Possible opponents depend on other results
The final placings in the zone could still shift if a team wins by a large margin in another fixture. Any such result could alter River’s position and, with it, who they face. Until the zone is fully settled, the exact identity of their round-of-16 opponent remains unclear.
