Both sides will be desperate to end the tournament with a win.

Neither side can win the Rugby Championship title but there’s no such thing as a dead-rubber between these sides. This guide explains how to watch New Zealand v Australia live streams in the second of this year’s Bledisloe Cup matches.

There are numerous viewing options around the world but lucky rugby fans in Australia can watch the match for FREE via the 9Now streaming service. And if you’re an Aussie travelling abroad when the game kicks off today, you don’t have to miss out because you can use a VPN to watch an All Blacks v Wallabies live stream from overseas.

New Zealand will be annoyed that they no longer have any say in this year’s title, as the Rugby Championship will be decided when South Africa take on Argentina in Mbombela later on Saturday. The All Blacks still have a chance of finishing second, but – after running their rivals close in last weekend’s 31-28 defeat – the Wallabies will believe an unlikely victory is possible in Wellington.

The game kicks off at 5.05pm AEST / 7.05pm NZST / 8.05am BST on Saturday 28 September. You won’t want to miss a second, so make sure you know how to watch a New Zealand v Australia live stream by following the instructions below. You can also check out upcoming New Zealand rugby fixtures, look back on past All Blacks captains and see the evolution of that famous black jersey over the decades.

Watch New Zealand v Australia if you’re abroad this weekend

Travelling overseas right now? That doesn’t mean you have to miss the All Blacks’ eagerly anticipated trip to Sydney. Fans who are travelling overseas can watch their usual service with the help of a VPN.

A VPN – or Virtual Private Network – is a handy piece of software that allows you to change your device’s IP address. This means you can view live or on-demand TV content as if you were sitting at home in front of your own television – even when you’re overseas. (Assuming it complies with the broadcaster’s T&Cs, of course.)

The technology experts from TechRadar love NordVPN for its strong privacy features, ease of use, and the fact it allows you to watch your favourite TV on multiple devices simultaneously. You also get a money-back guarantee, 24/7 support, and it’s currently available at a knockdown price.
