Preview: Ireland vs. Argentina

Ireland will be looking to end a run of six straight defeats on Saturday when they host Argentina at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin.

Declan Kidney's side lost a tight contest 16-12 against two-time world champions South Africa last weekend and they come up against a team who will be buoyed by their recent victory over Wales.

The hosts have made one change with Craig Gilroy making his debut in place of Andrew Trimble.

The Pumas have introduced four new faces to their starting lineup, including the return of Juan Martin Hernandez from injury.
