English players have had a mixed time of it against Argentina this summer. A British & Irish Lions team featuring nine English starters lost to the Pumas in Dublin in June, while a supposedly second-string England side ran out comfortable 35-12 winners in La Plata last weekend. Rugby is nothing if not unpredictable…
Unsurprisingly, head coach Borthwick has resisted the temptation to tinker with a winning formula. The only change to the 23 is Harlequins’ Luke Northmore making his international debut at outside centre, in place of the injured Henry Slade. Argentina, meanwhile, have made seven changes from the team that lost last weekend. It’s set to be a mild and dry evening in La Plata.
“Saturday’s match in San Juan is another great challenge,” said Borthwick. “The players have trained with real focus and intensity this week, determined to keep improving in every area. We’re expecting a tactical battle as well as a tough, physical contest, and everyone is excited for what should be a fantastic Test match.”

Overseas this weekend? Fear not because a VPN can help you watch your usual Argentina v England live stream as if you were back in Blighty. Cast your eyes downwards to find out how.
Watch the game from wherever you are
Don’t worry if you’re away from home this evening. A good VPN (aka Virtual Private Network) is a brilliant way to take the action with you.
Geo-restrictions mean that most streaming platforms will only work in a particular country. A VPN helps you get around this inconvenient fact of life by changing your IP address, making your laptop, tablet or smartphone appear to be in a different country. The result? You can watch your usual platforms, even when you’re a long way from home.
Our colleagues TechRadar review a lot of VPNs and rate NordVPN as the best you can by. Luckily, there’s currently an amazing deal worth scouting.
Exclusive offer: 70% off NordVPN, extra 4 months FREE, plus an Amazon voucher
On top of getting 70% off a two-year NordVPN plan, Rugby World readers can currently enjoy an extra four months of the service for free. You’ll also get up to £50/$50 worth of Amazon gift cards.
