Head to head: Springboks v Argentina

Cape Town - The Springboks go into Saturday’s Rugby Championship Test against Argentina with a good record against their South American rivals.

In 22 Tests played between the nations since 1993, the Boks have won 20, lost one and drawn one.

In Rugby Championship action since Argentina joined the competition in 2012, the teams have played seven Tests, with the Boks winning five, losing one and sharing the spoils once.

Argentina’s 36-25 upset win in Durban last year was their first triumph against South Africa.
