Argentina vs Australia Prediction: The Wallabies to maintain the top of the table

The Wallabies had a nice night last Saturday, having a decent 41-26 score win. However, in this second round, we do not expect the Argentine Pumas to come into the game with the same lackadaisical attitude as in the first round. It will also be a good chance for the Pumas to remain at the league's top as they are just a point above South Africa. 

Argentina could not control their fate and only continued their poor form in the Rugby Championship. After an unbelievable loss run in the 2021 Rugby Championship competition, no one could expect the Argentina Pumas to continue such poor performance as they are hosting this competition. Winning this match will mean it could be very difficult for the host team to win a match again in this year’s competition as they will have to face a tougher test against South Africa and New Zealand. Therefore, a win is imminent to boost their confidence and make their fans happy. Let us hope we see a changed Argentina team at the Estadio San Juan del Bicentenario Stadium on Saturday.

A top-class performance from the Wallabies in the first match opened their chance of being winners of this year's Rugby Championship. With their big win against Pumas, they are seated at the top of the log. However, they will not have to sit on their laurels when they go head to head in the second round. Dave Rennie's side will go into the game with the same mentality from the first match against the Pumas side that could not find their rhythm yet in the Rugby Championship since 2021. Quade Cooper will have a huge demand from him again, and the Wallabies' coach hopes he will deliver.

The Argentina team do not feel ready yet after last week's loss to the Wallabies. However, we do not expect them to be as weak as in their opening match in the Rugby Championship. After pulling 26 points in the first match, it would not be surprising if they could score more in this second round for them to get a win. Meanwhile, Australia Wallabies will be well motivated to win this second round with their impressive win in the first round. Although there is a high possibility they will not score up to 41 points in this round, a win is not going to be a problem for them.
