Scotland have only beaten the Springboks five times in 29 attempts, but there's no better time for Gregor Townsend's side to make a mockery of the history books. Their 57-17 bludgeoning of Fiji last weekend featured eight tries in a scintillating display that featured center Huw Jones at his line-breaking best and Duhan van der Merwe just staying ahead of Darcy Graham as his country's all-time top try scorer. Townsend must do without four-try Graham, though, after the winger failed concussion protocols in the build-up.
South Africa arrive in Edinburgh for their first match of the Autumn Internationals knowing they must be at it from the off. The Springboks bring unrivalled power to proceedings, with their hulking Bomb Squad forward pack – and 6-2 split of forwards to backs on the bench – earning the past two World Cups but few hearts and minds. Not that irascible coach Rassie Erasmus will mind, with the 18-3 victory from last year's World Cup the blueprint likely to be followed again.
