Argentina were beaten 41-24 in Cordoba last Saturday but coach Felipe Contepomi resisted making wholesale changes for the second meeting between the two sides in Buenos Aires this weekend, hoping a change of form rather than personnel will give them a chance of home success.
Mateo Carreras comes in on the left wing for his first game for Argentina this year as Bautista Delguy switches over to the other side and takes the place of Rodrigo Isgro, who was a try scorer in Cordoba last weekend.
Juan Martin Gonzalez replaces flanker Marcos Kremer, who is now among the replacements.
Argentina were outplayed by the New Zealanders and conceded six tries last Saturday as they opened this year’s southern hemisphere championship with a disappointing home performance.
Argentina also lost twice at home to an under-strength England in mid-year, albeit also without many of their own key players.
