The match
The 2019 Rugby World Cup Pool C will see an interesting opening fixture, as France and Argentina clash in what could be a battle for the second spot. With England heavy favourites to qualify as the top seeds from the pool, it is expected that these two sides make up the numbers for qualification. That means a lot is riding on this match, as a positive result will secure vital points. France, however, will be aware of their inconsistent run, having won just three of the 19 Tests outside of France since the last World Cup. Interestingly, France have never failed to qualify from the group and will be looking to extend that record here. Form, however, paints a different picture. They finished fifth in the 2019 Six Nations ahead of only Italy. The side has looked sharp on its day, but have usually struggled for continuity. Argentina head into the tournament in poor form after losing four matches. However, that run included two losses to South Africa, one each to New Zealand and Australia. Regardless, the South Americans have a settled squad that should give them the edge. They also carry the confidence of beating them twice in the 2007 World Cup.Key Statistics
- France have lost their last two Rugby World Cup clashes against Argentina.
- Argentina have won six of the last 11 matches against France and have won two of their last three H2H matches.
- Argentina have won just three of their last 21 Tests outside South America, while France have won just three of 19 Tests outside France.
The bet of our experts
Make no mistake, this is a very close match between two sides that are stacked closely together. France do have the right tools to make a push, but the uncertainty around the squad makes one sceptical. Argentina, on the other hand, have been together for a longer time and should feel confident about their starting team along with their star players. Nicolas Sanchez should be one of the best in the tournament, and having him in their ranks certainly tilts the scales in Argentina’s favour. Back the Pumas to bag a win and take a giant leap in the pool towards securing the second position.
