Manie Libbok is set to make his Test debut as the Springboks have rotated their lineup for the clash against France in Marseille on Saturday.

Former SA U20 flyhalf Libbok has been included on the Springbok bench for Saturday’s Test as Jacques Nienaber named a team showing five changes and two positional switches from the side that lost against Ireland in Dublin.

Willie le Roux will slot back into the starting team at fullback, which sees Cheslin Kolbe move to the right wing and Kurt-Lee Arendse to the left wing, while Makazole Mapimpi has been named among the replacements.

The other change in the backline sees Faf de Klerk start at scrumhalf in place of Jaden Hendrikse, who has been left out of the matchday 23 entirely.

Nienaber also made changes to his forward pack, with tighthead prop Frans Malherbe packing down in a new-look front row next to Ox Nche (prop) and Bongi Mbonambi (hooker), while Franco Mostert makes the jump from the bench to the starting lineup to fill the void left by injured lock Lood de Jager.

Other changes amongst the replacements – where the uncapped Libbok has been named in the matchday squad in a Test for the first time – include Cobus Reinach, who will provide cover at scrumhalf, and Marvin Orie.

Nienaber opted for a split of five forwards and three backs on the bench for this Test.

Springboks – 15 Willie le Roux, 14 Cheslin Kolbe, 13 Jesse Kriel, 12 Damian de Allende, 11 Kurt-Lee Arendse, 10 Damian Willemse, 9 Faf de Klerk, 8 Jasper Wiese, 7 Pieter-Steph du Toit, 6 Siya Kolisi (c), 5 Franco Mostert, 4 Eben Etzebeth, 3 Frans Malherbe, 2 Bongi Mbonambi, 1 Ox Nche.
