After playing at New Zealand's home of rugby last year the Kiwis are set to run out onto England's home of soccer in this year's Four Nations series.

Wembley Stadium is set to host the opening matches of the tournament with a double header between England against Australia and the Kiwis taking on debutants Wales.

Last year Eden Park hosted a similar double header.

The matches will be the first league games hosted at the new Wembley Stadium since it opened in 2007. The 1995 World Cup final was played at the old Wembley Stadium in front of more than 66,000.

England and Wales will stage the next World Cup in 2013.
