The Wallabies have failed to win their first three Tests since Eddie Jones' appointment, and they face a stiff challenge against New Zealand on Saturday.

Australia fell to their trans-Tasman rivals in the opening Bledisloe Cup clash last weekend 38-7 and will be hoping to salvage a series draw in Dunedin.

However, they haven't beaten the Kiwis in their own backyard in 22 years — an unwanted streak of 28 matches.

Wallabies vs All Blacks: Odds to win second Bledisloe Cup match

New Zealand are heavy favourites to make it a 2-0 series victory when they host Australia this weekend.

Wallabies vs All Blacks: Best bet

  • Pick: All Blacks -20.5
  • Odds: $1.85

In all but one of their last five matches played in New Zealand, the All Blacks have beaten the Wallabies by 20 points or more.

If their 31-point victory in Melbourne is anything to go by, they should be able to win this match by a healthy margin.

The handicap for this match is significant, but there really isn't anything to suggest that a struggling Australian side will be able to go close.

Wallabies vs All Blacks: Prop bet

  • Pick: Mark Nawaqanitawase to score a try
  • Odds: $3.00

Nawaqanitawase was a bright spot for the Wallabies last week in Melbourne, breaking through the lines on multiple occasions with his hard running.

The 22-year-old winger will take confidence from that performance and is a good chance to score a try in hostile territory.

Wallabies vs All Blacks: Outside bet

  • Pick: New Zealand 13+ / 51-60 points scored
  • Odds: $3.80

The consensus is that New Zealand should win big in Dunedin, so it's tricky to find value in the betting market.

Combining a 13+ All Blacks victory with a points total is an option, though.

The last time these two sides faced off in New Zealand, it finished 40-14 to the home side.

If we also consider their recent clash in Melbourne — which saw 45 points scored — we could be in for another high-scoring encounter, with the Kiwis likely to be boosted playing on home soil.

A points total between 51 to 60 is definitely a possibility.
