South Africa coach Rassie Erasmus said his side are set for a “high stakes” finale against Argentina as they look to win consecutive Rugby Championship titles for the first time.
The Springboks have won a record four Rugby World Cups, including the two most recent editions in 2019 and 2023.
But successive titles in the southern hemisphere Rugby Championship, also featuring New Zealand, Australia and Argentina, have so far eluded South Africa.
Although South Africa are title favourites, Erasmus expects a stern challenge from Argentina at the neutral venue of Twickenham in London.
“We love playing against Argentina, and against Australia, and I’m not quite sure how that’s going to work out,” Erasmus said.
