For Los Leones, Samuel Ezeala<\/a> will make his long-awaited Spanish senior debut, with the Stade Francais<\/a> flyer committing to the country of his birth. Coupled with the return of Toulouse<\/a> prop Joel Merkler<\/a>, this fixture will provide another excellent chance for Spain to challenge themselves against high quality opposition. <\/p>\n

The match will be played on Saturday afternoon at the Estadio Jos\u00e9 Vorilla, the venue for which the Spanish leg of the SVNS World Championships will be played in May next year.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Canada<\/a> travel to Batumi to take on Georgia, Portugal host Hong Kong China<\/a> and the USA<\/a> head to Romania. <\/p>\n

The USA may have fallen to Georgia 41-30 last week, but the fixture showed incredible improvement from the previous week\u2019s humbling effort in Scotland, with the Eagles now targeting a win to finish their European campaign against a Romanian side that saw off Canada 31-21 in Bucharest. <\/p>\n

Hong Kong China, ranked 23rd, get their first full international action of the window, following entertaining clashes with the Japan<\/a> XV and the ACT Brumbies, and will now look to topple over the 20th-ranked Portugal in Lisbon.<\/p>\n

All matches are available on RugbyPass TV and the RugbyPass app, subject to local broadcasting rights. Please check the live schedule<\/a> for matches available in your territory. <\/p>\n

Men\u2019s RWC 2027 Final Qualifying Tournament <\/p>\n

\u00a0And then there were two. <\/p>\n

Samoa and Belgium<\/a> will meet on Tuesday in a straight shootout for the final spot at the Men\u2019s Rugby World Cup 2027, knowing a win will see them book their tickets to Australia. <\/p>\n

Samoa are in the box seat, thanks to bonus point wins over both Brazil<\/a> and Namibia, meaning a draw would also likely be enough for the Pacific Islanders. <\/p>\n

Belgium, the second highest-ranked side behind Samoa at the tournament, survived an almighty scare against Brazil yesterday, taking the lead with just a minute remaining to secure a bonus point victory. <\/p>\n

Brazil, ranked 33rd in the world \u2013 11 places behind the Belgians, put in an impressive team effort with their World Cup dreams on the line, and will now turn their attention to taking on Namibia for the minor placings, looking to end their qualification campaign on a high, albeit without the ultimate goal of making their debut at rugby\u2019s global showcase. <\/p>\n

Both of the remaining matches in the Men\u2019s RWC 2027 Final Qualification Tournament are available on RugbyPass TV, or through local broadcasters in Belgium, Fiji, Samoa, New Zealand<\/a> and South America.<\/p>\n
