Back to full strength on home soil, the hosts will be heavy favourites to secure the title.
Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus believes that Los Pumas will be looking to run the Boks ragged this weekend, as they chase their own bit of history in a Rugby Championship decider at Mbombela Stadium on Saturday.
Having never won the competition, they still have a slim chance of claiming the title.
“They’ll definitely have a plan and the plan will be to run us off our feet,” said Erasmus.
“But our plan is to win. We lost one game in the Rugby Championship by one point and we’ve now got an opportunity at home to claim the trophy.”
