After the euphoric all home Super 14 Final at Orlando Stadium in Soweto, and the Football World Cup in its final stages it's time for some real rugby and its doesn't get any bigger than this. The old enemy, The All Blacks, right in their back yard.

The Boks will field their second most capped team in history, only second to the World Cup Final team in 2007. The scary thing though is that the All Black team is even a little bit more experienced, with ten more caps.

The Boks are indeed in a golden era, but talk of an All Black demise has been greatly exaggerated by the media. Yes, the Boks won all three tests again them last year, but that will serve as a huge motivating factor for the All Blacks this year.

Eden Park has been a very unhappy hunting ground for South Africa and the All Blacks have won 20 games in a row there (last loss in 1994).

The bookmakers have South Africa the favorite to win the tournament, but all have New Zealand installed as the favorite to win this match. After last year's disaster and the expectations for the 2011 World Cup mounting, we pick New Zealand to win by twelve or more.

Make no mistake, it will be a cracker, but we can see the Kiwis pulling away in the last ten minutes.

Best odds for our pick: Greatodds.com has New Zealand by 11-15 at a whopping 7/1.

Match odds at Greatodds.com - New Zealand (5/8), South Africa (8/5), The Draw (14/1).
