Saturday should have another epic game in store for us rugby fans, as we get to see Ireland vs Australia. This will be the last game of the Autumn Nations Series 2022 for the Irish, so they will be hoping that they can come away with one last win in order to secure an undefeated series. The Aussies, however, will have no intention of rolling over and making this test a convenience for the Men in Green, so I expect to see fireworks on the pitch. Which nation will come away with the bragging rights? Let me dive into this rugby prediction and offer some rugby betting tips for those looking to have a punt this weekend.

📜 History of Ireland vs Australia
This is far from the first Ireland vs Australia test, and since 1999, the two sides have even competed for the Lansdowne Cup. Let's take a look down Memory Lane to see how both sides have fared over the years.
Teams | Totals |
---|---|
Ireland Wins | 13 |
Australia | 22 |
Draws | 1 |
Out of 36 total tests, then, Australia are definitely the historically dominant force, with a majority of over 60% of the wins. What can recent matches offer, however, that the more distant picture can not?
Match | Date | Venue | Score | Winner |
---|---|---|---|---|
Ireland vs Australia | 22nd November 2014 | Lansdowne Road, Dublin | 26–23 | Ireland |
Ireland vs Australia | 26th November 2016 | Lansdowne Road, Dublin | 27–24 | Ireland |
Australia vs Ireland | 9th June 2018 | Lang Park, Brisbane | 18–9 | Australia |
Australia vs Ireland | 16th June 2018 | Melbourne Rectangular Stadium, Melbourne | 21–26 | Ireland |
Australia vs Ireland | 23rd June 2018 | Stadium Australia, Sydney | 16–20 | Ireland |
Four wins from five is quite a turn-around for the Irish, and indicates that the Wallabies may not been able to rest on their laurels, going into this one. Distant history may be singing for the Aussies, but the tune of today is all about Ireland.
🌏 Comparison of World Rankings Rugby Union
New Rank | Shift | Country | Points |

1 | 0 | Ireland | 90.63 |
2 | 0 | France | 90.01 |
3 | 0 | New Zealand | 89.15 |
4 | 0 | South Africa | 87.81 |
5 | 0 | England | 84.45 |
6 | 0 | Argentina | 82.04 |
7 | +2 | Wales | 81.26 |
8 | -1 | Australia | 80.64 |

13 | -2 | Fiji | 74.84 |
14 | -1 | Georgia | 73.19 |
15 | 0 | Tonga | 70.13 |
From the men's world rankings for rugby, we can see that Ireland continue to take the top spot whilst Australia find themselves in eighth position. All in all, I can't see the best team in the world falling short to Australia, so I think this is another indicator of an Irish win.
✔️ Ireland vs Australia: Recent Form of the Teams
Now we're getting into the good stuff. Looking at how a team are faring in any competition is a great indicator for any rugby prediction. Without further ado, let's delve into both sides' matches in the Autumn Nations Series 2022 so far.
☘️ Matches Recap: Ireland Autumn Nations Series 2022 So Far
There may not be an official winner of the Autumn Nations Series, but that won't stop fans of Ireland rugby celebrating their historic success in this year's competition. Indeed, it will be well-earned revelry, given how the side has played, edging South Africa in their opener, 19-16 and decimating Fiji the following week, 35-17. If this is any indication of how Andy Farrell's men will perform in next year's Rugby World Cup, Ireland have a lot to look forward to.
🦘 Matches Recap: Australia Autumn Nations Series 2022 So Far
Well, Australia, your day of my judgement has come. I think you may be disappointed the same one some Aussie rugby fans may have been. After a dubious 15-16 win against Scotland came from a missed kick by fly-half, Blair Kinghorn, the Wallabies got a kicking from the French the following week, 30-29 and bumbled to a miserable loss against Italy, 28-27 - which some cynical Scottish fans may have seen as karmic retribution, considering Australia missed out on the win by a missed conversation by Ben Donaldson at the close of play. I have a lot of respect for Australian rugby from their glory days, but what we have seen this Autumn Nations Series talentwise is a country mile away from their best. I think, on form alone, Ireland will smash this game.
🌦️ Weather Conditions at the Aviva Stadium, Dublin
We all know that the weather is a crucial factor for any rugby prediction, and I think the weather gods may be on the side of Ireland for this one. Australia may have gotten some practice with wet rugby balls this week, but with 11 degrees and rain forecasted, they would have been better trying to lob a wet bar of soap around the training ground. For this indicator, I think it's still going Ireland's way.
🕵️ My Ireland vs Australia Prediction Winner
Ireland, Ireland/Together standing tall.... I can see the Irish celebrating already. Although there are no guarantees in sport, I can understand why fans of Ireland rugby will be extremely confident, going into this game. I believe all signs are pointing towards a big night in Dublin after the final whistle, so let's hope the home side can live up to what should be a shoo-in for the Men in Green. Despite me only seeing this going Ireland's way, however, I still think this is going to be a fantastic game - one of the better matches to watch this Saturday.
My rugby prediction: Ireland to win.
💶 Ireland vs Australia Betting Tips
My honest opinion is that odds of Ireland to Win @ 1.16 are rather long from the bookies, given the potential outcome of the match. Does that mean I would take those odds, though? Not really. Personally, I think I would be most interested to be on Australia to win (+13.5 points) at 1.63. I would also considering taking the Ireland vs Australia match winner odds and combining them into an accumulator of my other game prediction: Wales vs Georgia, Italy vs South Africa, Scotland vs Argentina, and England vs New Zealand.
