Can the Springboks clinch the title on the Pumas’ turf?
The world champion Springboks could clinch the 2024 Rugby Championship with a game to spare but the Pumas are unlikely to make things easy for the visitors today. This match is sure to be essential viewing, so you’ll want to know how to watch Argentina v South Africa live streams wherever you are in the world.
If you’re in the UK you can tune in on Sky Sports/Now, while viewers in South Africa need to set their remote controls to SuperSport. There are also numerous countries where this Rugby Championship game is available for free via New Zealand Rugby’s NZR+ service. If you happen to be outside your usual country when the action kicks off, you can use a VPN to watch a Pumas v Springboks live stream from abroad.
South Africa have won all four games in this year’s Rugby Championship, and will seal the title if they’re victorious in Santiago del Estero. Head coach Rassie Erasmus may have left several star players at home in preparation for next weekend’s return fixture, but they still go into the game as strong favourites. Following victories against Australia and New Zealand, the Pumas are the only team with an outside chance of toppling the Springboks at the top of the league table. But there’ll be no room for slip-ups if they’re going to stand any chance of lifting the tournament trophy for the first time.
Kick-off is at 10.00pm BST / 11.00pm SAST (on Saturday), 7.00am AEST (on Sunday). Read on to find out how to watch Argentina v South Africa from anywhere.
