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 twosides have fared in recent times, ahead of Sunday's crunch encounter:
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.
September 19, 2009, Wellington - All Blacks 33 Wallabies 6Carter once again led the All Blacks to victory as as Cory Jane, Ma'a Nonu and Joe Rokocoko all crossed over. A Matt Giteau penalty and a Berrick Barnes drop goal was all Australia could muster.
July 18, 2009, Auckland - All Blacks 22 Wallabies 16 Stephen Donald kicked four penalties and a conversion and a Piri Weepu kept composure to direct the All Blacks to victory at Eden Park. Will history repeat?
