The match against the All Blacks XV falls in between test matches against Portugal and Romania. Los Teros will be focused on the assignment at hand but have an eye on Romania the following weekend. Uruguay need a good performance in Bucharest to ensure the aforementioned rankings band spot is retained.<\/p>\n

The first was an uncapped match in 1976 while the second was a Rugby World Cup match in 2023. Like the first match, the 2025 clash will be uncapped. \u00a0<\/p>\n ALL BLACKS XV Replacements: 16 Brodie McAlister, 17 Siale Lauaki, 18 Benet Kumeroa, 19 Devan Flanders, 20 Kaylum Boshier, 21 Xavier Roe, 22 Josh Jacomb, 23 Daniel Rona<\/p>\n Replacements: 16 Sebasti\u00e1n P\u00e9rez, 17 Mateo Perillo, 18 Reinaldo Piussi, 19 Carlos Deus, 20 Manuel Diana, 21 Arturo Ten Hoever, 22 \u00cdcaro Amarillo, 23 Ignacio \u00c1lvarez Akiki<\/p>\n The neutral location of B\u00e9ziers, France will play host to a very rare fixture. Uruguay and New Zealand have only once met in a test match and only on one other occasion in an uncapped rugby match. Watching the match will only be possible for those in attendance as the match will not be broadcast. The fixture had been scheduled to take-place in Montpellier but a dispute saw it moved to nearby B\u00e9ziers.<\/a> Friendly playing conditions await the teams in Southern France. The All Blacks XV are favorites to win in B\u00e9ziers.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Venue: Stade Raoul-Barriere, B\u00e9ziers, France \u00a0<\/p>\n Referee: Kevin Bralley (France) \u00a0<\/p>\n Current World Ranking: 15<\/a> (68.52 points)
