Argentina captain Agustin Creevy has been passed fit for Saturday’s Test against France in Paris on Saturday night.
The hooker returns for the Pumas final Test of the year as one of four changes made by head coach Daniel Hourcade, following last Friday’s narrow win over Italy.
Matias Cortese drops to the replacements’ bench to accommodate Creevy while Nicolas Sanchez returns at fly-half, meaning Juan Martin Hernandez will move to inside centre.
Marcelo Bosch is back from Saracens duty and he will line up outside Hernandez in the Argentina midfield.
The other change sees Juan Imhoff replace Lucas Gonzalez Amorosino on the wing.
Lock Guido Petti and flanker Facundo Isa will win just their second and third caps respectively in the pack and young back row man Tomas Lezana may be in line to win his first cap from the bench.
Lyon prop Nahuel Tetaz Chaparro was preferred to Ramiro Herrera of Castres, while number eight Juan Manuel Leguizamon will be on the sidelines, having not completely recovered from his calf strain.
Argentina: 15 Joaquín Tuculet, 14 Juan Imhoff, 13 Marcelo Bosch, 12 Juan Martín Hernandez, 11 Manuel Montero, 10 Nicolas Sanchez, 9 Tomas Cubelli, 8 Leonardo Senatore, 7 Javier Ortega Desio, 6 Facundo Isa, 5 Tomas Lavanini, 4 Guido Petti, 3 Nahuel Tetaz Chaparro, 2 Agustín Creevy, 1 Marcos Ayerza
