What channel is Italy v Australia International match on? Kick-off time and live stream
Check out our guide about how to watch Italy v Australia in the Autumn Internationals 2022 including TV details and UK time.
Italy will hope to pick up back-to-back victories this weekend when they welcome Australia to Florence. They defeated Samoa last weekend 49-17 following a comprehensive performance by Kieran Crowley’s side.
There were braces of tries for Juan Ignacio Brex and Monty Ioane, while Pierre Bruno and Lorenzo Cannone rounded out their team’s opening game of the Autumn Internationals. However, Italy are likely to be tested by Dave Rennie’s Wallabies as the calibre of opposition rises.
Having lost 30-29 at the hands of France in Paris, Australia pushed their hosts right until the very end. It took a fantastic individual score from French wing Damien Penaud to ultimately win the contest to break the spirits of those in golden jerseys.
Even in the face of defeat, there can be plenty of positives taken for the travelling team. Trading blows with a team many fancy to win next year’s Rugby World Cup, the Wallabies managed themselves effectively with Bernard Foley and Nic White controlling the game from half-back.
Both Italy and Australia experienced big, physical encounters last time out and will each seek to get at one another in Florence this weekend.
