Samoa face off against Chile in Rugby World Cup Round 2 on Sat 16th September 2023 at Stade Matmut-Atlantique. Kick-off in the UK is scheduled for 14:00. In South Africa it’s at 15:00 SAST, 01:00 NZST in New Zealand, 23:00 AEST in Australia and 06:00 EST in the US.
Chile won the last encounter but both teams are in the same form for their last 5 games.
Heading into the fixture the two sides are separated by just 4 places in the rankings with Chile in position 16 and Samoa in position 20, underlining just how tight this match could be.
The official squads for Samoa vs Chile will become available around 24- 48 hours before kick-off. Teams can still make changes up to an hour before the match however.
