Alex Cuthbert backs Wales to snatch victory over Australia

Cardiff Blues wing Alex Cuthbert believes that Wales have enough quality to get a result against Australia, despite a dismal autumn campaign.

The Welsh side have succumbed to defeat against Argentina, Samoa and New Zealand but Cuthbert is confident that the side's performance will warrant a win against the Wallabies this weekend at the Millennium Stadium.

"This is a big game for us and we know we can beat Australia," Cuthbert told BBC Sport. "We showed how we can play in that second half against New Zealand.

"It has been frustrating that we haven't been playing that kind of rugby in all our other games. This is a big game for us and we know we can beat Australia and we got so close to that in the summer. We are all looking forward to it and hopefully we can get the win."

Warren Gatland's side will fall out of the top eight in the International Rugby Board rankings if they lose to Australia.
