The match is scheduled to begin at 5:35pm (AEST) on Saturday, August 25 at Eden Park, New Zealand.

For the third-straight year, the Sydney faithful left ANZ Stadium dejected and searching for answers after the Wallabies fell to the New Zealanders again.

Despite leading 6-5 at halftime, Michael Cheika’s side fell apart in defence in the second half to concede 32 points and now will need to overcome the Kiwis on their own turf for the first time since 2001.

To make matters worse, fullback Israel Folau has been ruled out of the match with an ankle injury.

The All Blacks aren’t without injury concerns of their own, with Ryan Crotty (concussion) and Rieko Ioane (hamstring) out of Saturday’s game.
