Taking place at the historic Adelaide Oval, the Lions will be looking to bounce back from a bruising encounter with the Brumbies during the week from which they came away with a fairly unconvincing 36-24 win.
The most eye-catching name on the team sheets is Owen Farrell. Son of coach, Andy, the utility back has enjoyed very little rugby of late and there will be plenty of spectators waiting for him to fail. He'll start on the bench today, while the Tadhg Beirne-led starting XV includes an intimidating back row of Jac Morgan, Henry Pollock and Ben Earl.
The Invitational AUNZ team marks the first time that Australia and New Zealand have combined their forces on a rugby field for 36 years. And they've collected together an experienced squad — featuring the likes of Marika Koroibete, Hoskins Sotutu, Shannon Frizell, Kurt Eklund, Tane Edmed and Ngani Laumape — that should provide a genuine challenge to the Lions. You can see both XVs at the bottom of this page.
Here's how to watch AUNZ Invitational vs Lions live streams from anywhere in the world today, and potentially for free.
