Ireland's latest clash with New Zealand in Chicago was only announced on Tuesday but the scramble for tickets for November's fixture is already well and truly underway.

In fact, ticket sales for the match are also well and truly underway and it pretty much began as soon as the official announcement was made.

This will be the second time these teams have met in the windy city, following an epic 2016 clash that resulted in Ireland defeating the All Blacks for the first time in their 111-year history.

Since that moment, the teams have played each other 10 times, winning five each and establishing one of the great modern rivalries in rugby.

The game has been labelled as "The Rematch" and despite the announcement coming during the middle of the Six Nations camapign, and despite the fact it will be played during a busy Autumn series, many fans are seemingly eager to attend.

Unlike regular international fixtures, clubs will not receieve an allocation of tickets for the contest at Soldier Field.

Instead they, along with IRFU Supporters clubs and 10-year ticket holders, received a pre-sale link on Tuesday to buy tickets through their provincial ticket office.

That sale began at 4pm on Tuesday and they will all have a 48-hour window to purchase tickets before that window closes at 4pm on Thursday.

According to the IRFU website, there will also be a pre-sale for tickets on Thursday from 10 AM CT before tickets will be made available to the general public on Friday at 10 AM CT.
