Wayne Pivac’s Wales will go toe to toe with an Argentina side full of confidence in Cardiff this weekend. Losing 23-55 to New Zealand last weekend will hardly inject Welsh fans with great confidence ahead of this one.

In terms of positives from that defeat, there are relatively few. Rio Dyer scored a try on his debut, but the Welsh defence conceded eight tries as the All Blacks steamrolled their hosts, who barely threatened for much of the fixture.

On the other hand, Argentina went to London and upset Eddie Jones’ England at Twickenham last time out. 25 of their 30 points on Sunday afternoon came from Emiliano Boffelli, the Edinburgh Rugby wing, who scored a try, one conversion and six penalties on the way to a first win at the venue since 2006.

Coach Michael Cheika, who one week ago was also preparing Lebanon for a Rugby League World Cup quarter-final against Australia, has already overseen a major Argentinian victory over the All Blacks in New Zealand this year and will hope for more scalps in 2022.

It is difficult for Welsh fans to avoid the uncomfortable truth that Argentina may be favourites this weekend.
