Today’s Argentina vs Scotland live stream in the 2026 Nations Championship sees two perennial dark horses go head-to-head at the Estadio Mario Alberto Kempes in Cordoba for both sides’ opening match of the tournament.
It is a repeat of one of the most exciting matches of the last 12 months. The Scots led 21-0 at half-time when these teams met at Murrayfield in November before the Pumas roared back to win 33-24. In doing so, the South Americans pushed their way to a one-win advantage in the overall head-to-head between these sides and into the top five of the world rankings. Santiago Carreras starts at full-back, with the evergreen Julian Montoya leading the side at hooker.
Since then, coach Gregor Townsend has guided the Scots to third place in the Six Nations, including stunning wins against France and England. Unfortunately, he will have to do without Finn Russell, one of the most dynamic, inventive No10s in world rugby, due to injury. However, powerhouse backs Sione Tuipulotu and Kyle Steyn are a stern test for even the best defenses on the planet, while lock Jonny Gray returns after missing the Six Nations through injury.
