The Wales vs South Africa live streams bring an end to the Autumn Internationals 2025 with a David against Goliath contest. With both sides missing players because the game falls outside World Rugby's designated Test window, the Springboks' extra firepower feels significant but can Wales do the impossible?
South Africa are the world's No.1 side with good reason and seek another clean sweep of Autumn Internationals in Cardiff after their 24-13 defeat of Ireland a week ago. The Springboks' strength in depth is what makes them so good, meaning a fixture without a few of their Prem and Top 14 players shouldn't impinge them unduly. Head coach Rassie Erasmus has gone with a 7-1 split on the bench, with Cobus Reinach the only back replacement, with Eben Etzebeth and Bongi Mbonambi among those in reserve for a big second-half push. The upcoming star of world rugby, Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu continues at fly-half.
