The venue for this crunch fixture is the Brigadier General Estanislao López Stadium, also known as "The Elephant Graveyard", famous for its sporting giant slayings. 

Argentina have already felled one giant this championship, beating the mighty All Blacks on the opening weekend. And Los Pumas captain Julián Montoya, who will win his 100th cap against Australia, will be integral if they are to get back to winning ways.

Head coach Felipe Contepomi has made four changes following the narrow one-point loss last weekend, with Guido Petti, Tomas Lavanini, Tomas Albornoz and Bautista Delguy set to start.

Australia have also been forced into changes, with Ben Donaldson selected at No.10 and Max Jorgensen handed his starting debut on the wing. On the bench, veteran prop James Slipper is set to equal former captain George Gregan’s monumental record of 139 Test caps for the Wallabies.

Billed as 'The Best of The Best', TRC 2024 is heating up nicely. Read on for how to get Argentina vs Australia live streams, and watch Rugby Championship 2024 from wherever you are – including our guide to free options.
