Argentina are without several key players due to Top 14 commitments and go into the game as clear underdogs, but some will say they could still pose the stiffest challenge for the Lions before the Test series next month. Farrell will be eager to avoid both a repeat of the Pumas’ last game against the Lions, a shock 25-all draw in Cardiff in 2005, and the last warm-up game at home against Japan four years ago, when captain Alun Wyn Jones was lost to the tour through injury.
