Super Rugby Americas 2026 – Week 14 – ARN Guide

The final round of the regular season of Super Rugby Americas takes place this weekend. It sees two match-days with a Super Friday featuring a trio of fixtures and one match on Saturday afternoon. With one vacancy remaining in the Semi Finals it promises to be an epic final round of the regular season.

The first of the three Friday fixtures sees defending champions, Peñarol at home against the second placed Pampas. The Uruguayan side have no choice but to win with a bonus point before watching the remaining matches.

Game two sees the league leaders, Los Dogos at home against Yacare. It is a match without anything on the line due to the respective positions. The hosts are assured of top spots while the visitors cannot reach the final four.

Game three sees Los Tarucas hosting Los Capibaras for the first-time in SRA history. The hosts are chasing a historic place in the play-offs; they debuted in SRA 2025. Los Capibaras are assured of a place in the Semi Finals. The rookie team will either play at home or in Buenos Aires depending on Friday’s results.

The final match of Week 14 sees Selknam at home against Os Cobras in Santiago del Chile. The hosts must win to keep their season alive and also require Los Tarucas to lose against Los Capibaras. Os Cobras are ending their season with an eye on winning to avoid the wooden spoon.
