Scotland will be the opponents on Saturday for what is Argentina’s first home game since 2019.

Of all of the Northern Hemisphere teams playing south of the equator in July, Gregor Townsend’s side look to have the easiest task on paper – a three-match series against the Pumas – but that speaks more to their collective struggles going south than anything else.

New Argentina head coach Michael Cheika will want to make a strong start to his tenure on home soil, and his players will be desperate to show their best after such a long wait for a home crowd.

The Scots may have won all of their last five games against Argentina – and seven of their last eight – but they have left Finn Russell, Stuart Hogg, and Chris Harris at home to rest, which may give opportunities to other players but undoubtedly weakens the team.

The Six Nations ended poorly for the tourists, but there is still a lot of positivity surrounding Townsend’s side, who believe they can come away with a series win.

The first of three Tests will be played at the Estadio 23 de Agosto in San Salvador de Jujuy on Saturday, and is lining up to be an enthralling contest.
