The Juventus star is set to make his first international appearance since 2011 after being selected by coach Gerardo Martino.
Martino, who took over in August, said it had become impossible to ignore the in-form Tevez.
Martino's side face Croatia in London before a clash against Portugal in Manchester six days later, and he has named a strong squad for the clashes.
Niko Kovac's side are sure to have an eye on a much more important clash against Italy on Sunday in what is a Euro 2016 qualifier.
"Argentina is a challenge for the players who will travel," Kovac said.
"We will see who can stand Argentina, who can come closer to the national team. If Argentina isn't a motivation for every player, he is thinking wrongly.
"I'm sure we can get a good result, and most players have already been with us. I wouldn't call the reserve team."
