What channel is Italy v South Africa on?
Italy v South Africa is live on ITV1, with free streaming on ITVX. The game starts at 11.40 GMT at the Allianz Stadium in Turin on Saturday 7 November 2026, in round four of the Nations Championship.
Italy are one of only two sides still looking for a first Nations Championship win, along with Fiji. Gonzalo Quesada’s side lost all three games in the southern hemisphere in July, going down to Japan in Tokyo before heavy defeats against New Zealand in Wellington and Australia in Perth.
The injury list has made a difficult task harder. Quesada has made ten changes to his side, most of them enforced, and flanker Samuele Locatelli will make his Test debut.
South Africa have won all three of their games so far and, along with New Zealand, are setting the pace in the competition. The world champions beat England 45-21 at Ellis Park, saw off Scotland 42-28 in Pretoria and then thrashed Wales 43-0 in Durban in July.
That is the start of a European tour that matters for the overall standings, with the northern and southern hemisphere sides level on nine wins each going into this round.
It opens a packed day of Nations Championship rugby on ITV1, with Scotland v New Zealand, Wales v Japan and France v Fiji to follow.
