How to watch Bulls vs New Zealand for FREE: Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry live streams
The third game of the inaugural Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry tour sees New Zealand attempt to extend their perfect record when they travel to Pretoria to take on the Vodacom Bulls.
The All Blacks looked somewhat sluggish in the opening match of the tour as they struggled to overcome a makeshift Stormers side. It wasn’t until the final exchanges that New Zealand finally pulled away and secured an underwhelming 38-21 victory. However, Dave Rennie’s side responded in some style in midweek as they secured a thumping 54-0 win over the Sharks.
The tourists ran in eight tries in a convincing performance in Durban that saw a vast improvement across all aspects of the game, especially set-pieces and when putting boot to ball. Now they’ll aim to follow that result up with another powerful display at altitude in Pretoria.
The Bulls may be in pre-season but they will hope to present a far sterner test than the Sharks. One of South Africa’s leading sides, they reached the United Rugby Championship Grand Final in both 2025 and 2026, and have an astute head coach in former Springbok lock Johan Ackermann.
