New Zealand vs Australia Preview & Tips


New Zealand were on the cusp of a credible draw with Australia in their last clash mere days ago, but they shipped an 87th minute goal as they were beaten 1-0.

Australia left it late to beat New Zealand, with victory seeing their winning run against their opponents extended to 14 matches. 

  • Australia have won their last 14 against New Zealand 
  • The Aussies have beaten New Zealand to nil in their last five meetings 

Head To Head


Australia boast 14 consecutive wins against New Zealand in an incredibly dominant run against their rivals. 

New Zealand Form 


New Zealand made it two defeats in as many matches as they slipped to a 1-0 loss at the hands of Australia. 

This followed on from a 2-1 loss to Ukraine, with New Zealand unable to build on their 1-0 friendly win over the Ivory Coast in the game before. While there is nothing on the line in a friendly, New Zealand will want to end their two-match losing run, especially with a World Cup in 2026 quickly approaching. 

The focus for New Zealand needs to be on building towards the next World Cup with a string of wins, but it seems as though they will slip to a third consecutive defeat this week. They have failed to score in any of their last five against the Aussies, and it is tough to back them to get the win. 

Australia Form 


Australia arrive with history behind them after easing to 14 consecutive wins over their opponents. 

Prior to their match against New Zealand, Australia were able to secure impressive away wins against China and Saudi Arabia, with a home win over Japan sandwiched between. While Australia are not on the same level as the elite nations, they are a cut above New Zealand, as shown by their recent head to head. 

While Australia will likely have to be better to win their away game against their opponents, I see nothing other than another win for the Aussies, and I back them to do this to nil for the sixth consecutive time. 

Verdict

I am backing Australia to win to nil for the sixth successive time against New Zealand as the latter slip to a third consecutive defeat.
