Match preview

The final match of the Rugby Championship in Durban is set to be a title-decider and South Africa will know come kick-off what they need to do.

New Zealand and South Africa are level on points at the top of the table and both are strong favourites to win their final match. If both triumph the title will come down to bonus points or points difference, where New Zealand hold a 14-point advantage, and the chances are the hosts will be chasing a big victory.

The Springboks recorded a 36-20 victory in last week's meeting in Buenos Aires, where Argentina paid for a lack of discipline in the first half, going in 22-6 down at the break.

A fightback early in the second half wasn't enough as the Boks again pulled away and Argentina are likely to come under more pressure up front this week from a powerful South African pack.

The Springboks have gone with a six-two split on the bench so we can expect another strong finish.

Six of South Africa's last eight victories over Los Pumas have been by a double-figure margin - and the last three by a margin of 11 to 20 points, which is a 13-5 shot and could again be a worthwhile bet.
