Important information
Australia and New Zealand are actually playing each other twice — this article is about the men's game, but the women's teams played each other as part of the same tournament on Thursday.
The men's Australia vs New Zealand game will take place at Elland Road in Leeds, UK. England is the host of this year's tournament with games taking place in London, York, Manchester Sheffield and Newcastle.
The game starts at 7:45 pm local time, making it one of the latest-starting games of the World Cup.
Speaking strictly about the men's teams, both Australia and New Zealand are on winning streaks: the former beat Fiji, Scotland, Italy and Lebanon in the earlier stages of the cup, while the latter has seen off Lebanon, Jamaica, Ireland and Fiji.
Only one team can win on Friday though, which will end their opponent's streak. The winner will play whoever triumphs in Saturday's England vs Samoa match which takes place a day later at 2:30 pm local time.
