All Blacks visit Twickenham for this 3.10pm GMT kick-offSign up for The Breakdown newsletter | And email Lee
Welcome the the SponsorNameDome here in Twickenham for the curtain raiser of the Autumn International 2024 series for England as they take on the not currently as mighty as they used to be but still probably mighty enough New Zealand.
If one were to view this fixture as the final match in the three test series that started in the summer down in Aotearoa, then for the All Blacks this is a dead rubber given they won both matches back in July. However, England will know how close that mini series was and recall the agony they felt flying home so there’s nothing dead about this game for Steve Borthwick’s men. New Zealand will want a win to see a smoother improvement trendline than has so far been evident under the Scott Robertson regime.
