The match could provide an exciting head-to-head which would reunite a number of Springbok and England finalists from the 2019 Rugby World Cup Final in Japan.

DHL Stormers Head Coach John Dobson said that the trip to London would provide an ideal test for his squad against the reigning European Champions.

“Saracens are one of the top club teams in the world and renowned for their innovation and forward-thinking on and off the pitch, which this match is another good example of.

“This trip would give our players the chance to test themselves against a quality team in a world class venue, so we are very much looking forward to being a part of this,” he said.

Saracens Director of Rugby Mark McCall said: “We have a history of filling big stadiums in London for big games and we have also enjoyed a long and fruitful relationship with the DHL Stormers and Western Province Rugby so we are very excited about this game.”
