CONMEBOL announced in February that Argentina's capital will host the final of the most prestigious club tournament in South American soccer, but was yet to pick a venue. If River Plate had not advanced so far into the tournament, a smaller stadium than the renovated 84,000-seater could have been picked for the match.

The other semifinal of the tournament will be played between Brazil's Botafogo and Uruguay's Peñarol.
