Ferro Carril Oeste
- Ferro are first placed in the Primera Nacional 2026 with 52 points from 26 matches and are setting the promotion pace for the season so far, while Mitre are languishing in 25th place with 29 points from 26 games.
- At home in the Primera Nacional 2026, Ferro Carril Oeste have won eight, drawn one and lost four with 1.23 goals scored per game and 0.92 conceded.
- But it is the Verdolaga who come in hot, having won three from their last five games and taken three successive victories.
- Juan Sara has done a superb job since taking over on 14 April 2026, bringing structure and collective defensive organisation to the side.
- Lautaro Parisi is the main danger man for Ferro with eight Primera Nacional 2026 goals from 25 appearances and three from the last five.
Club Atletico Mitre
- On the road in the Primera Nacional 2026, Club Atletico Mitre have won just one, drawn seven and lost five with only 0.77 goals per game scored.
- Mitre's most recent three games have seen them win 2-0 at home, draw 1-1 at home to Atletico Guemes and lose 4-0 away at Deportivo Madryn, which was a setback but an understandable one given the game was on the road.
- Claudio Biaggio has been in charge since 29 June 2026 and has encouraged the Aurinegro to play with the ball more, to dominate the territory and to create more opportunities by overloading the wings and half spaces.
- Marcos Machado has been their main goal-scorer with ten Primera Nacional 2026 strikes from 26 appearances and he's also contributed two goals in their last five matches.
Head-to-Head
Ferro Carril Oeste have won the last three meetings, including a 1-0 victory away at Club Atletico Mitre four months ago in the Primera Nacional 2026.

Betting Insights
- The odds tell you all you need to know about this match with Ferro at 1.79, Mitre at 4.91 and the draw at 2.97.
- Under 2.5 goals at 1.4 looks like the best fit of the script of this game, which could be cagey and tense, even though Ferro do have a recent record of being able to unlock the defences of teams that play in a similar fashion.
Prediction
- The head-to-head record is all for Ferro and, despite Mitre's improved approach under Biaggio, we feel they still lack the steel to get anything from this game.
- So Ferro should edge it, but the odds still imply there is a chance the visitors will find a way to take something from this one.
- That's not really likely, though, and we predict that Ferro's solid structure and defensive line will be the key to shutting out a probing Mitre side.
