Andy Farrell's Ireland will host Scott Robertson's All Blacks in a World Cup quarter-final rematch in November. 

The All Blacks announced their schedule for the year on Wednesday evening, which includes a Twickenham fixture against England a week before they meet Farrell's men in Dublin. 

The scheduled will be the first meeting of the sides since New Zealand ousted Ireland in the last-eight bout on a 28-24 scoreline back in October of last year. 

While Ireland have shaded the recent encounters between the two, a double dose of World Cup defeats stick out as the real downfalls. 

Former all-conquering Crusaders boss Robertson - who has since taken over the All Black coaching reins from Ian Foster - will start his tenure in a two-Test series in the summer against England. 

The Rugby Championship will follow before they head north to take on England once again, Ireland, France and Italy.
