England vs South Africa

England welcomes South Africa to Twickenham for this final match of the Autumn Internationals. The home team will be full of confidence coming into this match after staging one of the greatest comebacks in recent history when they drew 25-25 with the All Blacks. The visitors also had their first win of their end of year tour when they thrashed Italy 63-21 in their last match. England looked dead and buried in their last match as they trailed New Zealand 25-6 in the 71st minute but a crazy eight-minute spell saw them score 19 points to force a draw.

TIP: The Springboks put behind them the opening two tour losses as they romped to victory against the Italians. They looked like a side transformed when Mannie Libbok was introduced from the bench as he pulled the strings in a dominant display. The contest between him and Marcus Smith promises to be one of the highlights of the match. South Africa will again rely on their Bomb Squad replacements to seal the win in the second half. he bookies have England as favourites but I’m tipping the Boks on the upset win. The best odds on this bet are as follows: Worldsportsbetting 2.40, Playabets 2.35 and Sunbet 2.40

HEAD TO HEAD STATS

England vs South Africa

  • South Africa last beat England at Twickenham back in 2014.
  • The last six matches between these teams are split three wins apiece.

Latest results for both teams

England drew 25-25 with New Zealand in their last match while the Springboks thrashed Italy 63-21 in their last match.

PREDICTION

Both teams have similar game plans whereby they use their powerful forwards to dominate the opposition and grind out results but they have played their best rugby recently when they kept ball in hand and ran at the opposition. England have been trying many new combinations as they experiment ahead of next year’s Six Nations and World Cup but we expect them to select their strongest team for this match. The loss of some key players for the Springboks will certainly hurt them in this match. I am predicting a very hard four Springbok win by points.
