With Italy thrashed by South Africa last weekend and Argentina swept aside by a rampant Ireland, this Nations Championship 2026 Round 5 tie at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris takes on huge importance as both nations look to respond with a victory.
After defeats to Japan, New Zealand and Australia, it was always going to be a tough ask for Italy to get anything from their clash with the Springboks. Especially as they were missing key players, including captain Michele Lamaro and centre pairing Tommaso Menoncello and Juan Ignacio Brex.
Yet despite suffering a 66-7 defeat in Turin, there were some positives for coach Gonzalo Quesada, not least the performance of his side after the interval. Trailing 45-0 at half-time, Italy showed plenty of character and were far more competitive. They’ll now need to show the same intensity from the opening whistle if they hope to overcome Argentina.
With a sole victory over Wales in their opening four games, it’s not been the brightest start to the championships for Los Pumas. Beaten 42-12 last weekend by Ireland, Argentina were a shadow of the adventurous attacking side that pushed the Irish so hard just two years ago.
They’ll hope to rediscover some of that attacking spark against Italy and will be looking for another strong display from Mateo Carreras, who was excellent against Ireland. Head coach Felipe Contepomi will be without captain Julian Montoya though who misses out due to HIA protocols.
