Argentina vs South Africa prediction

Argentina have once again shown their mettle at the Rugby Championship, recording wins over both New Zealand and Australia to prove that they belong at the top table of world rugby.

The Pumas are, however, out of the race for the Rugby Championship title after their 67-30 defeat at the hands of South Africa last weekend - a new Rugby Championship record for combined points in a single match.

The Springboks, meanwhile, have not been as dominant this year as they were in 2024, but their fate is very much in their own hands as they chase back-to-back titles for the first time in their history.

The world champions just need to win to be crowned champions, and may not even require that depending on the result between Australia and New Zealand earlier in the day. After proving their superiority over Argentina in Durban last weekend, we're expecting them to convincingly repeat the feat in London.
