Analysis: 'Double down' - how Wallabies can hurt wounded All Blacks
The Wallabies will look to press the same pressure points that troubled the All Blacks in their most recent outing.
Set-piece disruption, kick contests and a physical defensive line have all been identified as areas where Australia can build momentum.
New Zealand's response is likely to focus on accuracy at the breakdown and quicker ball to release outside runners.
The match shapes as a test of whether the All Blacks can correct their errors under sustained pressure.
