Australia coach Robbie Deans expects a difficult final Test match with Wales on Saturday.

Australia coach Robbie Deans is expecting another tough match against Wales despite having wrapped up the series on Saturday.

A stoppage-time penalty from Mike Harris saw the Wallabies record a 25-23 win over Wales to take the Test series score to 2-0.

Wales are still looking to end a run of 30 years without a victory down under, and Deans believes that this will be their motivation when they meet for the final Test match.

"Wales are a very good side. They give you nothing and they take their scoring chances. They showed that in the Six Nations, and they showed it again last weekend," Deans said.

"Both games in the series to date have been very close, there's no reason to suggest that Saturday afternoon will be any different. If anything, they will be even more dangerous because the circumstance will unshackle them.

"While they can no longer win the series, they can still achieve something only one other Welsh team has ever achieved by winning in Australia. And they have that opportunity in front of them with no real downside, nothing to fear, so to speak, as the series is beyond them."

Australia face Wales in the final Test match at the Allianz Stadium on Saturday.
