Two sides in serious need of a win meet at the Allianz Stadium in Sydney.
Warren Gatland’s men head Down Under looking for their first victory of 2024. This article explains how to follow the action as it happens – wherever you are in the world.
Viewers in the UK or Ireland can watch an Australia v Wales live stream on Sky Sports, while Aussies can tune FOR FREE via the 9Now streaming service. There are also numerous countries where the match is available for free on New Zealand Rugby’s NZR+ service – scroll down to find out more. If you happen to be travelling overseas when the match kicks off on Saturday 6 July, you can use a VPN to watch the Wallabies v Wales from abroad.
With Australia and Wales languishing at 9 and 10, respectively, in the world rankings, it’s fair to say that both have seen better days. Gatland’s extensive rebuild is yet to yield results on the pitch, while new Wallabies coach Joe Schmidt needs to help his team bounce back from a disastrous World Cup campaign – though with a Lions tour and a home World Cup on the horizon, he doesn’t have much time to find the perfect blend.
