Wales v New Zealand Live: Kick-off time, travel advice and match updates

Wales host the All Blacks in Cardiff this afternoon (3.15pm kick-off) in the first of four autumn internationals for Wayne Pivac's men this month.

Pivac's squad has been troubled with a number of injury concerns in the build-up, with the boss now waiting on the fitness of Leigh Halfpenny who is due to make his Wales return 16 months after a horror knee injury.

New Zealand, meanwhile, have rolled out the big guns for this clash as they bid to prevent Wales from earning their first win against them since 1953. As ever, the visitors are the favourites despite a turbulent year of results, aided by their 32-game winning run heading into the Principality Stadium encounter.

They will be watched on by tens of thousands of fans, who are being advised to avoid railway travel and get into the Welsh capital as early as possible. That's because most train services in Wales remain suspended due to a workers' strike planned for today being called off at short notice on Friday afternoon. Follow live travel updates here.

When fans get inside the ground, they will be treated to an enhanced matchday experience featuring a roaming brass band, a giant inflatable ball and a camera-wearing goat. Read more about that here.

Amazon Prime Video have the live broadcast rights for the autumn series, meaning the BBC and ITV miss out. Wales highlights will be shown on S4C this evening, but stick with us for live updates throughout the day:
