The All Blacks have made five changes to the starting XV and six changes to the reserves.
Coach Dave Rennie said he and his fellow selectors, Neil Barnes and Sir Graham Henry, have sought to balance continuity with opportunity in selecting the side.
“There are a number of players and combinations who we felt deserved and would benefit from a second successive run, and other players who have earned the right to get their opportunity.”
Rennie said they won’t be taking Italy lightly, despite the fact the Italians have never beaten the All Blacks.
