It is a little impolite to state lower class or to label a group as rich.
Could you be more polite and say;
In Argentine soccer Boca is the team for the more disadvantaged of the population and River is for the more affluent citizens.

They are all technically correct. I would say the 3rd option makes the most sense. Also when you're making a comparison like this, I would word the lower-class/rich adjectives differently. I wouldn't necessarily want to use the word poor, but maybe something like:
"In Argentine soccer, Boca is a team for/of the average person and River is a rich people’s team"
