Watch South Africa vs New Zealand at Rugby Championship 2024, with round four set to take place this weekend. Below we have all the info on how to watch South Africa vs New Zealand online from anywhere in the world with details on worldwide TV channels, broadcasters, free streams and start times.
South Africa remain in control of the championship after their 31-27 victory over New Zealand last weekend. The Springboks overturned a 10-point deficit in an absorbing encounter at Ellis Park Stadium in Johannesburg, as the world champions made it three wins out of three so far. Another win in the second instalment of this double-header would put them within touching distance of the trophy.
New Zealand, for their part, must win here to keep their hopes of glory alive. There were plenty of positives for the All Blacks to take from their performance last time out, but New Zealand ultimately could not withstand the late pressure South Africa piled on. Scott Robertson will hope his players do not suffer from any sort of hangover heading into this contest.
