The Kangaroos and the Kiwis are set to clash in the Pacific Cup Final in Hamilton.
The Kangaroos, under the leadership of Mal Meninga, have maintained an unbeaten record in Australia, winning all 12 Test matches.
However, they will be facing a challenging environment at Waikato's FMG Stadium, with the Kiwis having the home ground advantage.
The Kiwi forward pack, led by James Fisher-Harris and Joe Tapine, will be determined to redeem themselves after a disappointing lead-up.
Both teams are expected to field their strongest line-ups for the decider, leaving nothing in the tank in this final match of the season.
The Kiwis, known for their ability to perform under pressure, have shown in the past 20 years that form leading up to a match can be irrelevant when it comes to playing for silverware.
The Kangaroos will need to be prepared for a hostile reception from the passionate Kiwi fans and the fired-up opposition.
