Wales, with three changes
After New Zealand’s 55-23 defeat on Saturday, Wales will present three changes and some adjustments to face Los Pumas. Coach Wayne Pivac has decided to put Louis Rees-Zammit, a 21-year-old player who is usually a winger, as a full-back for the first time.
The absences, due to injury, of Leigh Halfpenny and Liam Williams forced the New Zealander to this innovation, which caused other adjustments: Gareth Anscombe, who played as number 15 against the All Blacks, will be half flying, pushing Rhys Priestland on the bench, while Alex Cuthbert replaces Rees-Zammit as a winger.
Among the forwards, captain Justin Tipuric will step aside in the back row for this match, leaving his number six spot to Dan Lydiate, while Tommy Reffell, with a bruised rib on Saturday, remained unaffected. In the front row, Dillon Lewis takes over from Tomas Francis as a pillar.
