France will host the Springboks on the 08th of November 2025 as the two nations collide for the first time since their emotionally charged 2023 Rugby World Cup quarter-final which the Springboks won 29-28.
The clash between two of the rugby heavyweights was said to be the greatest World Cup play-off match of all time, however, the fallout from the hosts' defeat has left many players still bitter, while hostile French supporters vocally supported England and the All Blacks in the semi and final of the 2023 World Cup.
The Springboks are set to tackle France on 08 November at the Stade de France with Fiji to follow seven days later before a clash against the Wallabies closes out a challenging 2025 fixture list for France, who also tackle the All Blacks in Dunedin, Wellington and Hamilton in July.
