Pressure on Argentina against under-strength England side - Eddie Jones

England coach Eddie Jones stated that the pressure is squarely on Argentina as the two teams lock horns in a two-match Test series in the summer tour.

After nearly 30 front-line players are missing the tour due to injuries, suspension and British and Irish Lions commitments, Jones has picked a young and inexperienced squad to face Argentina.

England are coming into the tournament with back-to-back Six Nations title and also they registered a 18 consecutive winning streak that was ended by Ireland but Jones insists that the Pumas carry the burden of expectation having to face a relatively inexperienced squad this summer.

"Argentina are under a lot of pressure to win this game," the Australian said. "They didn't have a great 2016 and they know they are playing an under-strength England side, so all the pressure is on Argentina.

"And, when you are under pressure, you can do one of two things. You can become even more adventurous or you can revert back to type.

"Everyone eats steaks here, everyone wants to bullfight, everyone wants to scrum, so it is a matter of where they go and we are not sure.

"Our preparation has got to be so that we are prepared for either of those. They might start to run the ball from anywhere so we don't know."

Citing the example of Super Rugby teams, Jones urged referee Nigel Owens to have a close watch on the front row of the scrum.

"We have got a very good referee in Nigel Owens, probably the best referee in the game," Jones said.

"Super Rugby sides tend to scrum quite passively, but I am sure the Pumas on Saturday won't be scrummaging passively.

"It will be a whole different ball game. We are going to go with a reasonably young front row, which means they have got no fear, which is fantastic for us."

The two Tests will be played on 10th and 17th June in San Juan and Santa Fe respectively.
