Gabriel Rupanu Chile face off against Romania in World Rugby Nations Cup Round 1 on Sat 4th July 2026 at Estadio Nacional Julio Martinez Pradanos. Kick-off in the UK is scheduled for 23:00. In South Africa it’s at 00:00 SAST, 10:00 NZST in New Zealand, 08:00 AEST in Australia and 15:00 EST in the US.
Chile won the last encounter but Chile are in the best form of their last 5 games.
Heading into the fixture the two sides are separated by just 5 places in the rankings with Chile in position 16 and Romania in position 21, underlining just how tight this match could be.
The official squads for Chile vs Romania will become available around 24- 48 hours before kick-off. Teams can still make changes up to an hour before the match however.
