Wales head to San Juan for round two of the new Nations Championship, seeking to avenge a heavy 52-28 defeat by Argentina in Cardiff last November. That loss, which featured seven Pumas tries, came in Steve Tandy's first match as head coach, and he now hopes his squad has absorbed the lessons from that painful experience as they face a tougher test away from home on Saturday.

Wales go into the fixture with rare momentum, having won two Tests in a row for the first time since the 2023 World Cup, including a 39-24 victory over Fiji and a win over Italy that ended a three-year Six Nations losing streak. Tandy acknowledged the scale of the challenge, with Wales ranked 11th in the world against seventh-placed Argentina, and noted his preparations were disrupted by a gruelling journey of 7,000 miles, 18 hours and four time zones, split over two flights and leaving just one full squad training day before a further internal flight to San Juan.
