Following a miserable 2023 Rugby World Cup, Italy have enjoyed a remarkable turnaround in fortunes. The appointment of Gonzalo Quesada was an inspired one as the Argentinean led the Azzurri to their best-ever finish at the Six Nations. They also bounced back from a summer tour loss to Samoa with wins over Tonga and Japan. Full of confidence, they’ll believe they can secure a first win over Argentina since 2008.
The Pumas have also enjoyed a memorable 2024. Following a run to the semi-finals of the Rugby World Cup, they excelled in the Rugby Championship, beating South Africa, New Zealand and Australia. They also have a standout record against Italy, winning 17 of their 23 meetings, including the last eight in a row.
Both teams have progressed in the last 12 months and will want to end the year on a high. So will Argentina secure a ninth straight victory over Italy? Or will it be the Azzurri who are celebrating on home soil?
