The USA Eagles are off the back of an impressive Nations Cup campaign, where they won all three games, including an impressive opening win against the Rugby Europe Champions, Portugal. In their last game against Spain, they found themselves 22-19 behind with 20 minutes to go, but a converted try and a penalty in the last 15 minutes put them seven points ahead at the end of the game.

**Argentina XV (Away team):**

This will be a secondary Argentina, where they will look to bring to the next generation of players to support their future preparations for the 2027 World Cup. Los Pumas put in a valiant effort against the Springboks, but were unable to hold onto their early lead and lost by seven points.
