Now coming up to the halfway stage of the tournament, the Rugby Championship standings are beginning to take shape, with not too many surprises thus far.

New Zealand and South Africa are living up to their tags as competition favourites after the opening exchanges, giving us a good idea of just which fixtures will prove most pivotal in the next month.

Although rugby of this standard is never to be missed, the following encounters promise to be particularly exciting spectacles that promise to tip the silverware scales.

South Africa vs. Australia

Where: Newlands, Cape Town, South Africa

Time: 5 p.m. SAST/4 p.m. BST/11 a.m. ET
