Ireland face the All Blacks at the Aviva Stadium on Saturday

Ireland will hope to continue their hot streak of form when they face New Zealand in Dublin this weekend. Andy Farrell’s men have won their last six matches, including three Six Nations clashes and encounters with Japan and USA.

The Irish move on to a huge test against the All-Blacks but will be determined to give a strong account of themselves against elite opponents.  The All Blacks. A name which strikes fear and awe into rugby teams and supporters around the world.

New Zealand are on a European tour and their next destination is Dublin, where Andy Farrell’s Ireland will look to pull off the improbable.

Ireland began their Autumn campaign with a 60-5 evisceration of an undercooked Japan side last weekend – a nice ego boost before the real acid test.

As for the All Blacks they have left a trail of destruction behind them on their journey north, racking up 205 points in three fixtures against the USA, Wales and Italy.

They will know Saturday is a different proposition however, and their last visit to the Aviva Stadium in 2018 ended in defeat.

And not only will Ireland be their sternest opponents of the tour so far – Wales were heavily understrength – they also will be playing in front of a packed Lansdowne Road.

Supporters – the game’s lifeblood – are back and the Aviva is a sellout. The roar of the crowd was sorely missed. It will be poignant to hear it in all its glory once again.

Here is everything you need to know as Ireland look to topple the mighty All Blacks.
