Argentina coach Felipe Contepomi kept faith Thursday with the same side that narrowly lost to world champions South Africa for the clash this weekend against Australia.
The Pumas went down 17-10 in a tense one-off Test in Buenos Aires three weeks ago, and with no injuries, an unchanged starting XV was named for the match on Saturday in Jujuy.
Experienced flanker Pablo Matera again captains the side with regular skipper Julian Montoya unavailable.
Montoya is one of several senior players not considered due to club commitments. That group also includes Mateo Carreras, Santiago Chocobares, and Marcos Kremer.
Argentina (15-1)
Geronimo Prisciantelli; Rodrigo Isgro, Lucio Cinti, Faustino Sanchez Valarolo, Ignacio Mendy; Santiago Carreras, Simon Benitez Cruz; Joaquin Moro, Benjamin Grondona, Pablo Matera (capt); Tomas Lavanini, Guido Petti; Francisco Moreno, Ignacio Ruiz, Boris Wenger
Replacements: Leonel Oviedo, Rodrigo Martinez, Tomas Rapetti, Efrain Elias, Juan Penoucos, Agustin Moyano, Nicolas Roger, Matias Moroni.
