The All Blacks head into tonight's test against Samoa with one of sport's most impressive unbeaten streaks on the line.

- They have gone 37 games undefeated at Eden Park since the 23-20 loss to France on July 3 1994.

- The side were held to 18-18 by South Africa the same year and have since won 36 straight.

- There have been close shaves, like the 8-7 win over France in the 2011 World Cup final, but many have come and failed to upstage the All Blacks. - The Wallabies have been the All Blacks' most regular victim, with 14 defeats.

- The teams who have tried and failed include Australia, England, South Africa, France, Ireland, Tonga, the British and Irish Lions, Scotland, Canada and Wales.

- There is a team notably omitted from that list - Samoa. Samoa have only faced the All Blacks once before at Eden Park - a 35-13 defeat in 1993. They have won at the ground before however, beating Tonga during their 2011 Rugby World Cup pool match at Eden Park.

- The All Blacks have never lost at Eden Park during Anton Lienert Brown's life time. He was born a year after the France defeat in 1994. - Going further back the All Blacks previous defeat before the France loss was against Australia in 1986. Meaning in 49 matches at Eden Park, they've lost just once.

- The All Blacks biggest victory during the streak was a 73-7 win over Canada in 1995.

- The All Blacks have only once failed to score a try during the streak, in the 18-all draw with South Africa in 1994.

- South Africa is the only opposition to score more than 30 in a game during the streak. They lost 55-35 in 1997.

- The least number of points scored by the All Blacks during the streak was in the 2011 World Cup final when they beat France 8-7.
