The South Africans will need to take care of possession much better than the Scots did to neutralize the effects of the Japan home ground advantage.
Of all the teams you don’t want to play in a QF it’s Japan here at home, the way they have been playing. They are playing a bit like New Zealand with the offloads, coupled with the passion of the French on their day.
I think the Springboks will have the advantage for sure, but the Japan reps have earned plenty of respect.
