Ireland and Argentina have played each other 19 times at Test level, their first encounter coming in 1990.
The Irish have won 13 of those, including all 10 at home, the most recent being a resounding 53-7 win in November 2021.
Argentina do, however, possess some notable wins against the Irish having prevailed in three out of their four World Cup encounters.
The most recent of those came in the 2015 quarter-finals in Cardiff. With Ireland favourites to earn a semi-final berth for the first time, the Pumas raced into a 17-0 lead and eventually won 43-20.
It was a hugely painful evening for Joe Schmidt’s Ireland, who were missing Paul O’Connell, Johnny Sexton, Peter O’Mahony, Sean O’Brien and Jared Payne because of injury.
Robbie Henshaw, Conor Murray, Cian Healy and Iain Henderson, all of whom featured in that quarter-final, are still in the Ireland squad while the likes of Santiago Cordero and Matias Alemanno are still in the Argentina panel.
