BsAs is football crazy with 20 stadiums in the area. Passions run so high that not only is alcohol not served in the stadium, it is not served in the surrounding area on game day either. Game day is a very colorful time, filled with songs, chants, drums and a very large police presence.
try these websites for starters for a few of the many clubs in town:

I'm pretty sure you already ARE familiar with the fact that Argentine men just DIE for football. By the way, the topic of football is a constant source of fighting among couples, as women claim that men are only interested in football.
Going to a match is an experience you won't regret because of the atmosphere you'll see: the singing of the fans, the boos, the scoring of goals.
What teams to see? River and Boca are the most important.
If you're interested in this you can contact lkdahl (VTer) for information, or just visit his page as he went to 3 different matches when he was here in February. He hired a company which picks you up at your place, takes you to the stadium and then back to your place.
Very casual. Jeans, trainers and a t-shirt. Don't wear any fancy clothes because people may stare at you, mostly the hooligans! Leave a Comment Theme: Other

Can't go to Argentina without going to a football match.
Try anyone of the main hotels. They should have info, brochure of services that provide a genuine Argentine football experience. Just pick the match 3and these services will come an pick you up from your hotel or apartment and take you to the game by bus, and provide tickets for you in the reserved seating area.
A guide will be present with you during the game and a bus will be waiting just outside the stadium to take you back to your hotel or apartment.
Cost for me was 100 pesos(about $35 USD).
Be sure to wear neutral colors or the home teams colors or jersey. NEVER wear the road teams jersey or cheer openly for the road team. With the guided services, you will ALWAYS be seated on the home teams side.
Note that when looking at the fixtures/schedule, the home team is always listed first. This is the opposite of schedules are printed in the US. Leave a Comment

A must see activity in Buenos Aires is attending either Boca Jr. or River Plate soccer game. I got to see the Boca Jrs. play International (Brazil) and it was INSANE.
We Americans don't get too many opportunities to see quality soccer, so this is a big treat if you're traveling to BA from the states. Leave a Comment Theme: Sports Watching

I love football (soccer), and despite I prefer River Plate (eternal rival of Boca Juniors), I visited Boca Juniors' famous stadium "La Bombonera" (the bonbon case), but there was not any match that afternoon. This stadium is situated at La Boca (obviously!) and painted by local artists.
Me encanta el fútbol, y a pesar de ser simpatizante de River Plate, el eterno rival de Boca Juniors, visité el famoso estadio de Boca, "La Bombonera", si bien no había partido aquella tarde. Este estadio está ubicado en La Boca (¡obviamente!) y está decorado por pintores locales. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

Rio de Janeiro has the stadium where Pele performed miracles, La Maracana. New York (the Bronx) has the House that Ruth built in Yankee Stadium and Buenos Aires has the Estadio Boca Junior where the great Diego Maradona once played on La Boca Juniors. Head over for a game and try to catch one of the local teams and you'll be amazed at the passion of the fans.

In my last day of activities before going back at home i had the greatest chance to attend to a football match, between RIVER PLATE & PAOLISTA from brazil. Of course that i couldn`t be able to get there without the help of my argentinian friend, Estefania. who is definitely a fun of River.
It was so nice to be there and i have to say that THANKS ESTEFI for taking me there...
Note: i think is important to mention that as my friend, estefania, told me is safer for foreigners to go to a safer place of the stadium. we went to a quite place, which, is called PLATEA. is safer because is a bit dangerous to get where the funs are located...(POPULAR)
I think if you enjoy taking photos a great camera and louder voice to screen the goals...jeje Leave a Comment Theme: Sports WatchingDirections: el barrio de nuñez...

Club Atletico Boca Juniors is the football team Maradona played for and supports. Its one of the two most popular teams in Argentina, the blue and "gold" are its colours and the stadium is located at the neighbourhood of the same name.
The stadium can hold up to 60 thousand people. Founded in 1940 people call it "La Bombonera" which means "the chocolate box".
At the entrance there s an arts mural painted in blue and yellow by the excellent artist Benito Quinquela Martín welcoming visitors.
On the outside entrance theres another mural by the welll known artist Pérez Celis.
Nearby, on Brandsen street is the "Museo de la Pasion Boquense" which holds a large colection of objects and pictures that will tell you the history of this football team.
In order to find out when theres a game you can watch, try the fixture at http://www2.afa.uolsinectis.com.ar/Torneos_Locales/Primera_A/Tablas_Torneo/Home.htm?Op=201&pSolapa=1&pTorneo=1726
"The best way to get tickets is to go one or two days before the match and pick them up from scalpers. Make sure they are real ones though. DO NOT GO THROUGH AN AGENCY, that is the way they rip you off. If you buy POPULAR (the cheap seats) its ok but less safe than buying more expensive seats.
Please don't show any signs of wealth, no camera, no watch, nothing and be sensible. Leave a Comment Theme: Sports WatchingAddress: Brandsen 805Phone: 4309-4700 (extension 717)Directions: buses: 20, 25, 29, 33, 46, 53, 64, 152Other Contact: www.bocajuniors.com.ar
