Head-to-head statistics Argentino Junin - Ferro Carril Oeste
Argentino Junin Team Overview
Argentino Junín lost their import Pinkney over the summer and brought in Ferguson as his replacement. The 29-year-old American big man, standing at 203 cm, joins from Uruguay’s Sayago. Having only just arrived, Ferguson will have little time to settle in with his new teammates. Key players Sandrini and Smith remain with the squad. In attack and under the basket, newcomers Gusmão and Fernández - both from the domestic league - are worth watching, while among the imports, Patterson stands out. Clearly, this revamped roster will need time to build chemistry. In previous head-to-head meetings, Argentino struggled massively against Ferro, losing both regular season games by margins of 17 and 26 points.

Ferro Carril Oeste Team Overview
Ferro Carril enjoyed a stellar campaign last season, reaching the playoff semifinals. The key strength of Fernández's squad lies in their stability: the club has retained its core group and cohesive system. Ferro play an up-tempo, team-oriented brand of basketball, excelling from beyond the arc and thriving on rapid transitions from defense to offense. The club extended contracts with 11 players, so they travel to Junín with a full roster. The only change sees Sesular join the side in place of Torresi. According to Argentine media, Sesular was one of the top targets on the summer market, as his athleticism is seen as a perfect fit for Ferro’s style.
