Wales have one last chance to salvage a truly awful Autumn Nations Series, and perhaps even save Warren Gatland’s job in the process, when they face South Africa on Saturday.

A loss to Fiji, their first ever in Cardiff, saw Gatland’s side slump to a 10th defeat in a row.

They then fell further in crisis with a 52-20 loss to Australia, sinking to a new low with an all-time worst run of form in the history of Welsh rugby.

Another defeat this weekend against the world champions seems almost inevitable.

Clashes between these two have been tense arm wrestles in recent history, with Wales often matching the Springbok physicality. But with Wales’ form, many are expecting another heavy defeat in Cardiff.

South Africa are hoping to round out a flawless autumn having already beaten Scotland and England, but Rassie Erasmus is well aware that Wales are a side with nothing to lose and will plan accordingly.

Wales v South Africa key player to watch

The Hendrikse siblings (South Africa)

Brothers Jaden and Jordan Hendrikse will start for the first time together as Springboks half-backs and bring an exciting flair to South Africa. Scrum-half Jaden has won 19 caps while fly-half Jordan got his first in June against Wales, and they have the chance to show their strengths and combinations in Cardiff.

Wales v South Africa prediction

Frankly, a loss for Wales under 10 points will be a significant improvement. A Welsh win would be a miracle, and is wholly unlikely. It’s just a case of how much Wales can limit the Boks’ scoring.

Prediction: SOUTH AFRICA WIN

You can tune in for every Autumn Internationals match live on TNT Sports and discovery+ in from 2nd to 30th November 2024.
