The Wallabies are in absolutely desperate need of a win when they clash with Italy in the second match of their Spring Tour. The match is scheduled to begin at 1am (AEDT) on Sunday, November 18 at the Stadio Euganeo in Padua.

After a poor start to the pivotal end-of-year Spring Tour, this will no doubt be viewed as an absolute must-win for embattled Wallabies coach Michael Cheika.

Australia have won all 17 Tests they’ve played against the Azzurri, although two of the last three encounters have been quite close.
