Ireland will be determined to end their Autumn Nations Series campaign with a bang. Andy Farrell's side have recovered from a 23-13 defeat to New Zealand in their tournament opener with victories over Argentina and Fiji, the latter a 52-17 blowout last weekend, and the head coach should welcome back rested big hitters such as Garry Ringrose, Jack Crowley and Jamison Gibson-Park.
Australia, meanwhile, will want to put last weekend's 27-13 loss to Scotland behind them. Joe Schmidt has restored a good deal of confidence to the Wallabies this tour after an especially impressive victory over England but the head coach will be sweating on the fitness of inspirational centre Joseph Suaalii, who had to be replaced after making a big tackle last week at Murrayfield.
Every Autumn Series match including Ireland vs Australia is live on TNT Sports in the UK and can be streamed via Discovery Plus. If staying up late Down Under you can catch the match live on Stan Sport. And rugby fans up early in the US can tune into all the action on Peacock TV. Lucky rugby fans in Ireland, though, can enjoy the match on Virgin Media Play for free.
