Springbok supporters are expected to pack DHL Stadium in Cape Town for Saturday’s Test against the All Blacks.

A sea of green and gold is set to sweep through the streets of Cape Town as thousands of Springbok supporters descend on the city for the showdown with the All Blacks.

On Saturday, about 62,000 people are expected inside the sold-out DHL Stadium, while thousands more will gather at venues across the city to watch one of rugby's biggest rivalries.

For Cape Town residents who are not heading to the match, the Test will still be difficult to ignore.

Road restrictions around Green Point and the stadium began from 6am, with heavy traffic expected as supporters start making their way into the city ahead of the 5.10pm kick-off.
