Springboks to play World Cup hosts France in November
2023 Rugby World Cup hosts France will play Australia, South Africa and Japan in November, the French Rugby Federation announced Thursday.
Fabien Galthie's team host the Wallabies at the Stade de France on November 5 before facing world champions South Africa a week later in Marseille.
Six Nations Grand Slam winners France conclude their three-match series in Toulouse on November 20 against Japan, the same opponents they will play twice in July on their summer tour.
Second-ranked France have not lost a match since a 33-30 defeat by Australia in Brisbane in July 2021.
Les Bleus have won eight Tests in a row and could equal an 85-year-old record if they win both matches in Japan.
