Argentina are off the back of a good Rugby Championship and had excellent results, not necessarily in victory.
They have ticked off all the big names over the last 12 months and beaten New Zealand in New Zealand. They are a very experienced team and they are a hard bunch,
You have got to do something special to beat them.
England v Argentina (20:00 BST)
Argentina will be in uncharted territory when they begin their World Cup campaign in Marseille on Saturday.
The Pumas are ranked two places higher than England in the world standings and are slight favourites for the first time in a meeting between the two nations.
Michael Cheika's side are sixth in the world, having claimed a famous first away win in New Zealand last year before also beating England and Australia on the road and finishing third in the recent Rugby Championship.
Eighth-placed England, in contrast, had a disappointing Six Nations and lost three of their four summer warm-up matches, including a first defeat by Fiji.

In the England fan community at the moment there is doubt.
There is just that edge of uncertainty, all the players are talking about getting behind them.

They [England] have been a team in decline for four years.
[Steve] Borthwick took on the job and it is somewhat of a hospital pass. If you are being a realist and believing what you see with your eyes England are going to have to do something to get past Argentina.

BBC rugby union correspondent in Marseille
England's players started the week in the remote calm of Le Touquet, cocooned from the pressure that is mounting on the team.
They end the week in the eye of the storm.
There is no respite in bustling Marseille, a place which exudes World Cup history. Anyone who was here in 2007 will never forget it, least of all the legions of England fans who watched their side upset the odds against Australia and improbably reach the semi-finals.
These England players went out for a coffee in town on Friday. Surrounded by the yachts of the Vieux Port, they find themselves in a similar boat 16 years on. Both sides were written off before their showdowns in the Velodrome.

The big team news is that Alex Mitchell and Jonny May will start for England despite initially missing out on the 33-man squad.

Flanker Tom Curry starts his first game since the Premiership final in May.
England: Steward; May, Marchant, Tuilagi, Daly; Ford, Mitchell; Genge, George, Cole, Itoje, Chessum, Lawes (capt), Curry, Earl.
Replacements: Dan, Marler, Stuart, Martin, Ludlam, Care, Smith, Lawrence.

England's preparation for this World Cup opener have been far from ideal.
Three defeats in four warm-up matches, 12 tries conceded and two red cards.
Captain Owen Farrell and number eight Billy Vunipola are both suspended for this game and questions have been raised over England's defence.
Steve Borthwick's men are eighth in the world standings, their lowest ranking coming into a World Cup.
But can they start with a bang in France and turn their fortunes around when it matters most?
