The in-form Wallabies head to Murrayfield in a tantalising Autumn Nations Series match
Of all this weekend’s Autumn Internationals, this may be the hardest one to call – especially as it’s set to be a windy afternoon in Edinburgh. Whatever happens it’s set to be an exciting 80 minutes, so you won’t want to miss a second. This guide explains how to watch a Scotland v Australia live stream today, wherever you are in the world.
Kick-off: 1.40pm GMT, Sunday 24 November
Watch in the UK and Ireland: TNT Sports
Watch in the US: Peacock
Scotland are capable of beating pretty much anyone on their day and, after giving his youngsters a run out against Portugal last week, head coach Gregor Townsend has named a strong side for today’s game. In the back row Matt Fagerson wins his 50th cap, but Australia will be most worried about the off-the-cuff brilliance of Finn Russell at fly-half, and the try-scoring exploits of Darcy Graham and Duhan van der Merwe on the wings.
The Wallabies, meanwhile, have been November’s surprise package, as Joe Schmidt’s rebuild appears well ahead of schedule heading into next year’s British & Irish Lions tour. League convert Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii comes back into the starting XV at centre, while former Leicester Tigers player Harry Potter makes his debut on the wing.
