The New Zealanders have already secured the Rugby Championship title, but a clash against their old rivals always takes on great importance.
The All Blacks thumped the Springboks 57-0 in Albany earlier in the season and are heavy favourites to beat them again this weekend.
Sportingbet predicted a 17-point victory for New Zealand on Saturday.
The All Blacks boast a 56-35 win-loss record over the Springboks, including three draws.
The Kiwis have also won 10 of their last 11 Tests against the Boks.
At Newlands, the visitors have beaten South Africa six times, compared to three defeats.
