The All Blacks are the heavy favourties going into the match.

Appearing on the Times' rugby podcast, 85-Test veteran Dallaglio is backing the Irish to break Kiwi hearts once again.

Ireland will be boosted by their recent record against the All Blacks though, winning two of their last three matches against Steve Hansen's side. 

In the Rugby World Cup quarterfinals, Australia will face England at 7.15 pm this Saturday, the All Blacks take on Ireland at 10.15 pm this Saturday while France will play Wales at 7.15 pm this Sunday.
