Brace will be helped by compatriots Chris Busby and Eoghan Cross as Assistant Referees while Ben Whitehouse of Wales will be in the TMO booth.
For interest’s sake, the Foul Play Review Officer (FPRO) will be Scotland’s Mike Adamson.
The match will kick off at 19:40 (SA time).
Good record
The Springboks have a good record when Brace has had the whistle, winning four of the five Tests that he’s been in charge.
Slightly worrying, however, is the fact that the only Test the Springboks have lost under Brace was, you guessed it, against England at Twickenham in 2021.
