Head to Head
With neither side been recognised as an official side, it is merely an exciting friendly. Even when they have met in the past, the two sides were vastly different to that which will be on display come Sunday.
Barbarians News & Squad
The Barbarians are littered with exciting international talent around the park. New Zealand-born Welsh international, Gareth Anscombe starts at fullback as his comeback to rugby continues.
Flamboyant Aussie flyhalf, Quade Cooper starts at 10 with Samu Kerevi joining his national partner in the backline.
Recently retired Welsh lock, Alun Wyn Jones will lead the side from lock with Tauluape Faletau also in the mix.
Barbarians forwards: Nic Dolly, Taulupe Faletau, Alun Wyn Jones, Stephan Lewies, Steven Luatua, Enrique Pieretto, Carlü Sadie, Rob Simmons, Harry Thacker, Sione Vailanu, Aaron Wainwright, Alex Waller, Tom West, Kai Yamamoto.
Barbarians backs: Gareth Anscombe, Quade Cooper, Aaron Cruden, Francois Hougaard, Sam Johnson, Samu Kerevi, Tevita Li, Jack Maunder, Adam Radwan, Taichi Takahashi, Seta Tamanivalu.
World XV News & Squad
The World XV also has plenty of quality within their ranks. Former Australian international, Israel Folau makes his way back onto the international scene with South African wing, Sbu Nkosi out wide along with him.
Adam Hastings is in the flyhalf jersey with Nick Phipps at scrumhalf.
World XV forwards: Fraser Brown, Niccolò Cannone, Elliot Dee, Allan Dell, Harry Hockings, Wyn Jones, Oli Kebble, Michele Lamaro, Viliame Mata, Jordi Murphy, Sebastian Negri, Api Ratuniyarawa, Marcus Street.
World XV backs: Bryn Hall, Adam Hastings, Israel Folau, Ngani Laumape, Sbu Nkosi, Rhys Patchell, Nick Phipps, Charles Piutau, Semi Radradra, Kaminieli Rasaku.
Verdict
Both sides are full of exciting talent so it's a tough one to call. I'm giving the baabaas the upper hand.
