Wales have been forced into two changes to their side to face South Africa in an Autumn international clash in Cardiff on Saturday, with Nicky Smith coming into the side at loosehead prop and Josh Hathaway on the wing.

Head coach Warren Gatland will today lead his adopted country for the 149th time when Wales host world champions South Africa.

Under-fire Wales boss Warren Gatland is the "world's best coach" and going nowhere, according to assistant Rob Howley.

Wales today face a daunting task to halt their historic losing run as they host South Africa in the final match of a dismal Autumn Nations Series. It has been a woeful campaign for Warren Gatland’s side thus far to follow a one-win Six Nations and summer defeats by the Springboks and Australia,

Wales attempt to avoid more unwanted history as they face South Africa in Cardiff this evening. Warren Gatland’s side are on a run of 11 straight Test match defeats, and should they be beaten by the Springboks it will be the first time since 1937 that they have gone an entire calendar year without a win.
