French referee Pierre Brousset will take charge of Wales against the All Blacks on Saturday, just six days after officiating England's clash with Australia.
The 37-year-old is back in the middle at the Principality Stadium, having already overseen one of the biggest fixtures of the November internationals.
Brousset refereed England's victory over Australia at Allianz Stadium last Sunday.
Now he faces another major assignment as Wales look to upset New Zealand in Cardiff.
The Frenchman is one of only two referees handed two matches during the November Nations Championship series.
Ireland's Andrew Brace is the other, with World Rugby confirming the appointments ahead of the tournament.
Brousset has previously experienced disappointment on the international stage.
He was due to referee Ireland against Italy in the 2024 Six Nations, but a calf injury forced him to withdraw just days before kick-off.
England's Luke Pearce stepped in as his replacement.
There will be no shortage of pressure in Cardiff, with Wales facing another difficult examination against the All Blacks.
Brousset will be assisted by Australia's Nic Berry and fellow Frenchman Luc Ramos.
Tual Trainini will serve as TMO, with Ireland's Leo Colgan appointed foul play review officer.
