Makazole Mapimpi can bring the Springbok heat at ‘cold’ Murrayfield
Springboks to reignite rivalry with Scotland
The Springboks will be looking to reignite their rivalry with Scotland when they take on the hosts at Murrayfield on Saturday.
The two sides have a long and storied history, with the Springboks holding a 23-14-3 record over Scotland.
However, Scotland have won the last two meetings between the two sides, including a 20-17 victory in Port Elizabeth in 2018.
A big game for Makazole Mapimpi
One of the key players for the Springboks in this match will be wing Makazole Mapimpi.
Mapimpi is one of the most dangerous attackers in world rugby, and he will be looking to make a big impact against Scotland.
The 29-year-old has scored 16 tries in 26 Tests for the Springboks, and he will be hoping to add to his tally on Saturday.
Can the Springboks overcome the ‘cold’ Murrayfield?
The Springboks will be playing in front of a hostile crowd at Murrayfield, and they will also have to contend with the cold weather.
However, the Springboks are a tough and experienced side, and they will be confident of getting the job done.
If they can overcome the ‘cold’ Murrayfield, the Springboks will take a big step towards winning the Rugby Championship.
