Argentina vs England Prediction: Red Rose should be tough to stop

Argentina will be out for revenge on Saturday when they face England in the second Test of their summer series at the Estadio San Juan del Bicentenario in San Juan (20:40 BST, Sky Sports Main Event/Sky Sports Action).

Below are my Argentina vs England predictions, supported by all the latest team news and match odds.

Steve Borthwick's team went into the first Test with plenty to prove, and they duly delivered as they won 35-12 away from home. Fly-half George Ford made his 100th appearance for England and showed plenty of quality as he led his team over the line.

The Red Rose were clinical in the second half last week and they showed plenty of heart to dig out a vital win, even playing with 13 men for sections of the first half.

Argentina beat the British and Irish Lions last month, but they have plenty of work to do ahead of Saturday's encounter.

Team News

Uncapped Harlequins centre Luke Northmore will get the chance to impress from the start for England as he replaces Henry Slade, who suffered a tour-ending hand injury in La Plata last week.

Argentina coach Felipe Contepomi has made seven changes to his team. Matias Moroni and Ignacio Mendy have replaced Rodrigo Isgro and Santi Cordero.

Props Mayco Vivas and Pedro Delgado have dropped to the bench, with Thomas Gallo and Francisco Gomes Kodela replacing the pair.

Guido Petti will come in for Lucas Paulo, while flanker Santiago Grondona starts over No.8 Facundo Isa, meaning vice captain Pablo Matera shifts to the back of the scrum.

The final change sees Simon Benitez Cruz start at scrum-half, with Gonzalo Bertranou dropping out of the squad.

Argentina vs England Odds

Despite losing the first Test, Argentina are 8/11 to win Saturday's battle, with the draw 22/1 and England priced at 11/10.

Argentina are available at 5/6 to cover the -2 handicap, while England are 21/20 in the Draw No Bet market.

England to win @ 11/10

England were brave and clinical last week to secure the win against Argentina, and the Red Rose look capable of keeping that winning feeling going.

The hosts will hope that the seven changes to their team has the required effect, but Borthwick's visitors have already proven they can do the business and they won’t be fazed by this challenge.

England’s ability to win, even though they played with 13 men last week for a brief period, shows the drive and determination in the squad.

The Red Rose are without 14 first-team players this weekend, but with Ford in form, they can manage the game and build their success on a rock-solid defence.

Conceding just 12 points last week will have given them so much confidence, and they look good value to pick up another vital win.
