Wales vs South Africa U20 Predictions
Wales have been impressive at times during this campaign, particularly against New Zealand and Australia. They will be looking to finish on a high, and they could achieve that against the hosts who severely lack confidence.

Head to Head
South Africa and Wales have not met in recent times at U20 level.
Wales U20 Form
Wales have done pretty much as well as can be expected of them given the U20 talent at hand. They arrive in this final for seventh place with a decent chance of victory against the hosts.
The Welsh began the tournament with an impressive performance against New Zealand, getting within a score, losing 41-34. It was followed by a 21-point victory over Spain before losing 29-11 to France in the final group game.
Last weekend, in the semi-final for fifth place, Wales showed some promise again, losing 36-29 to Australia.
Wales U20 Injuries & Team News
Wales are likely to name a similar side to the one that faced Australia depending on injuries.
South Africa U20 Form
South Africa U20 have endured their worst U20 campaign for many years and the coaches have come in for quite a bit of criticism. The hosts, who were at least expected to challenge for the title, will have to be happy with seventh place.
A strong start in a 50-point win over Fiji gave many hope that the Baby Boks would challenge. However, since then it has been all downhill, losing 31-12 to Argentina and 17-12 to England in the group stage.
In the fifth-place semi-final, South Africa got the chance to revenge their defeat to Argentina but were outplayed again, losing 34-24.

Wholesale changes can be expected once again as the coaches continue to struggle to find the right combinations.
Verdict
I am backing Wales U20 to cover the +9 handicap and possibly beat the hosts.
