A very good afternoon to our Ultimate Rugby viewers. Today we welcome you to Stadio Olimpico where the Italy host the world's best rugby side New Zealand.

The last time the All Blacks took on Italy in Rome they walked away with a 10-try, 68-10 victory. Since that encounter, Italy have made big strides in their defensive game and will make the All Blacks work hard for any points they put on the board.

The All Blacks should have too much fire power for the Azurri but it may not be a repeat of the 10-try trouncing we saw in 2016.

Stay tuned right here on Ultimate Rugby for your play by play action.
