World champions South Africa will go to Dublin for the first time in five years in early November to take on Ireland, who will also host Fiji and Australia in the autumn tests, the Irish federation announced on Thursday.
After the historic defeat in 2017 (38-3), the Springboks had avoided meeting the XV of the Clover on the island, but have since won the 2019 World Cup in Japan, and a test series last summer. against the British and Irish Lions.
This clash, scheduled for November 5, will be the prelude to South Africa-Ireland at the Stade de France on September 23, 2023, within the framework of the World Cup organized in France.
The second rival for Andy Farrell’s men will be Fiji, a week later.
And on November 19 Ireland will face Australia. The last confrontation between the two rugby powers dates back to 2018, when the Irish took a series of three games with a victory in Sydney (20-16).
