The 2024 mid-year Rugby Union Internationals truly kick into life this weekend, beginning with a salivating clash between two of rugby’s most dominant nations. Argentina and France begin their three-match Test series at the unique Mendoza Stadium in Mendoza, and going off what we’ve seen from these two in the last 12 months, it should be some game.
Losing the 2023 Rugby World Cup final by a solitary point to arch-rivals Argentina last autumn in Paris was the bitterest of pills to swallow for the Los Pumas, and new head coach Scott “Razor” Robertson has ushered in several new faces looking to make an impact in Argentina’s first match of the year.
France, meanwhile, have already taken to the field six times so far in 2024, finishing third in the Six Nations before starting their summer off with a convincing win over a Japan side led by their former head coach Eddie Jones. Steve Borthwick’s side laid down a marker in Tokyo, winning 52-17 and scoring eight tries in total.

However, after their sister team the Maori Los Pumas also put the wringer through Japan last weekend, winning 36-10 at a canter, Robertson’s new-look Argentina side will be confident they can bring an unknown element to Saturday’s match and exploit France’s weaknesses.
These two last met in November 2022 at Twickenham, as France somehow salvaged a 30-30 draw having been comfortably adrift with 10 minutes to go before an All Black sin-binning. It proved to be the penultimate match in charge for Eddie Jones, and Borthwick will be hoping his first encounter with the Los Pumas has an even better result.
The covered-glass roof of the Mendoza Stadium will leave nowhere to hide for either of these two teams, and ahead of the match The Sporting News has all the TV and streaming details for you to keep tabs on the action from Mendoza, as the hotly-anticipate Test series between Argentina and France gets underway.
