Malcolm Marx v Asafo Aumua – Both players started from the bench last week and came on to make a big difference, earning them a starting a place in the starting lineup for the third Test.

Eben Etzebeth v Tupou Vaa’I – The Springboks most capped player will face his opposite number who will earn his 50^th cap and will want to make a statement performance.

Damian McKenzie v Cheslin Kolbe – McKenzie has been putting up consistent performances in the number 15 jersey for the All Blacks, cementing his place in the starting lineup.
