Chile have won both of their summer internationals to date, edging out Hong Kong 22-17 before a comprehensive 33-5 thumping of Belgium last time out. The Chileans are on the rise as rugby continues to grow in popularity following their debut at last year's World Cup. However, this will a stern test of Chile's credentials: their previous meeting with Scotland in 2022 ended in a 45-5 defeat.

Gregor Townsend will be looking for a similar result here, although the traveling fans will be vastly outnumbered at the historic Estadio Nacional in Santiago. Confidence is high in the Scotland camp after a 73-12 demolition of Canada was followed by a 42-7 triumph over the USA. This is the third match on their tour of the Americas and Scotland will fancy their chances of maintaining their 100 percent record.
