France v South Africa: How to watch Nations Championship clash for free
France v South Africa: Free live stream and kick-off time

France and South Africa meet in the second round of Nations Championship fixtures tonight in a blockbuster clash in Paris. The game is being shown live and for free on ITV1, with coverage starting at 7.15pm.

Kick-off time and venue

France v South Africa kicks off at 8.10pm (UK time) on Friday, November 13, at the Stade de France in Paris.

Two of the world's best teams go head to head in what is likely to be a dummy run for the final of the tournament, which takes place at Allianz Stadium Twickenham at the end of the month.

Team news and form

Les Bleus and the Springboks are set to finish top of their respective pools, meaning they will probably meet twice in a fortnight.

The world champions smashed Italy last weekend in Turin, running out 66-7 winners against a depleted Azzurri, while the French dished out their own hammering, beating Fiji 54-17 in Lyon.

Superstar scrum-half Antoine Dupont has been moved to fly-half for tonight's game, with the French enduring an injury crisis at 10.
