The world champion Springboks are coming to Murrayfield. Here’s how to tune in, wherever you are in the world today.
Scotland haven’t beaten the Springboks since 2010. Can they end that run today? You’ll have to watch a Scotland v South Africa live stream to find out. This guide explains how you can tune in, wherever you are in the world.
Kick-off: 4.10pm GMT, Sunday 10 November
Watch in the UK and Ireland: TNT Sports
Watch in the US: Peacock
Scotland know they’ll have to play out of their skins to claim victory against the world champions, so head coach Gregor Townsend will be pleased to have two of his standout players, Finn Russell and Blair Kinghorn, back in the starting line-up. Darcy Graham, who scored four tries against Fiji last weekend, misses out after failing a head injury assessment, so Tom Jordan (winning his second international cap) comes in at full-back.
The Springboks, meanwhile, have named a typically powerful side, as head coach Rassie Erasmus picks a 7-1 split on the bench – whatever happens, Scotland’s forwards are going to have a busy day.
