THE PREDICTION
New Zealand come into this clash with Ireland in somewhat unchartered territory having lost their last two matches. France defeated them in their last outing back in November, conceding 40 points in that contest while the Ireland got the better of them in the previous week. They will come into this with renewed vigour as they look to get the better of their opponents in the first of three clashes with the Irish. Ireland will travel to Auckland knowing they face a tough task at Eden Park where the All Blacks are on an incredible 28-year unbeaten run. With the Irish going down to the Maori All Blacks last week in their warm-up clash, it is unlikely that they will be able to bounce back here and the hosts should be able to get back to winning ways.
