The All Blacks haven't lost to Australia at Eden Park since 1986. But is that really a factor? The better history might be the past 10 clashes between the two teams, the last one of which was won by the Wallabies before the Rugby World Cup.
See how the two
sides have fared in recent times, ahead of Sunday's crunch encounter:
August 27, 2011, Brisbane - Wallabies 25 - All Blacks 20
Radike Samo ran straight through Adam Thomson and Zac Guildford had a case of the dropsies as the Wallabies won the Tri-Nations title.
August 6, 2011, Auckland - All Blacks 30 Wallabies 14
The All Blacks produced an almost complete performance to secure the Bledisloe Cup for a ninth straight year.
October 30, 2010, Hong Kong - Wallabies 26 - All Blacks 24
For a dead rubber, there was ample bounce in Bledisloe IV. Too much for the All Blacks, they lost their unbeaten record in what was the most gripping finale to a test in many years.
