Ireland take on South Africa in Dublin to round off the Boys in Green’s Autumn Nations Series.
After wins against Australia and Japan, Ireland are hoping to round off their Autumn internationals with a win over South Africa.
The last time these two sides played each other was in Durban, when Ciaran Frawley’s drop-goal was the difference between the two sides.
South Africa have gone this series unbeaten so far, beating Japan, France and Italy as they look to obtain a memorable result in Dublin.
The last time South Africa won on Irish soil was in 2012, with Ulster Rugby legend Ruan Pienaar scoring the only try of the game.
Ireland return to almost full-strength, with Andrew Porter, Josh van der Flier and Bundee Aki all returning to the starting line-up for Andy Farrell’s side, who dropped to fourth in the world rankings.
The Boys in Green will need to be firing on all cylinders if they are to come out on top of Rassie Erasmus’ World-Number-One Springboks.
The Springboks will wrap up their Autumn Nations Series when they face Wales next week.
