Ferro to maintain their fine away record
Ferro Carril Oeste
Ferro Carril Oeste come into this Saturday's away game at CA Los Andes in mixed form but still dangerous, having won 3 and lost 2 of their last 5 Primera Nacional 2026 matches. Juan Sara has brought a pragmatic, order-first approach to the club since he took the job in April 2026.
Ferro are structured, tough and reliable, built around winning duels, exploiting set pieces and being solid in the second balls. They are not a team that plays with much tempo or flair, but that has brought them a club best 43 points from 23 games in Primera Nacional 2026.
CA Los Andes
Los Andes arrive in slightly less impressive form, having won 2, drawn 1 and lost 2 in their last 5. Their 3 most recent games have swung wildly between a 2-0 home win over Colon, a 4-0 defeat away at Deportivo Moron and a 1-3 home loss to Godoy Cruz.
Leonardo Lemos has kept Los Andes disciplined and compact since he arrived as head coach in September 2024. They have been much sturdier at home than away, going unbeaten in their last 2 on home soil with 1 win and 1 draw. Their solid back line and structured wide play has done the heavy lifting in Primera Nacional 2026, where they sit 11th on 33 points from 21 matches.
Los Andes picked up a good 2-0 win over Ferro in the most recent away game 4 months ago but have failed to win at home to them. The draw is 2.5, Ferro are 2.8 and Los Andes are 2.9 for Saturday's game, but this looks a lot closer than those odds suggest, with Ferro coming into this as the side with the better record in the league and Los Andes having been sturdier at home.
Ferro can also be lethal when they play with intent and have won 7 of their 12 road games, so we're going with the draw at 2.5 for this one. This game is more likely to be a chess match than a shootout, with transitions and dead balls likely to be the difference between the teams.
The under 2.5 goals at 1.3 option also fits the script, while Both Teams To Score – No at 1.54 should also come in as neither side will want to give the other the game.
- Lautaro Parisi is Ferro's most dangerous player up front with 6 goals in 22 games and 2 in the last 5, but they are not a one-man team and are just as likely to score with a well-executed set piece or a well-timed run than a shot from the top of the penalty area.
- Mauricio Asenjo is Los Andes' most consistent performer in Primera Nacional 2026, having bagged 7 goals in 19 appearances.
- He is the club's reliable finisher and an asset to the team.
- The recent head-to-head record looks very similar in Primera Nacional 2026 with Los Andes taking 1 win from the last 3 meetings and Ferro 2, but there have been no ties.
