In what is arguably the best Autumn International on paper this year - world No. 1 Ireland and three-time World Cup winners New Zealand go head-to-head at Aviva Stadium in Dublin tonight. 

Ireland - who have won two of their last three games against the All Blacks - are 1/2 favourites to be victorious at home.

Conversely, New Zealand are 7/4 outsiders the upset the applecart in enemy territory, and a draw is a wide 20/1.

The All Blacks will take plenty of confidence into tonight's contest given what occurred the last time these two teams met - a game in which New Zealand upset Ireland 28-24 in the quarter-final at the 2023 Rugby World Cup.
