Dubai New Zealand Sevens coach Gordon Tietjens believes his country will finally break their Rugby World Cup drought and get their hands on the Webb Ellis trophy on Sunday.
The coach, whose side won a record ninth Sevens World Series title last season, believes the All Blacks have the edge over their inconsistent French rivals.
"I think the All Blacks will win quite comfortably," he said.
"They're a united side at the moment and are looking really good so I think this is their year.
Tietjens, who will be in Dubai for the Emirates Airline Dubai Rugby Sevens this December, was involved with the All Blacks' World Cup preparation, having been invited by fellow coach Graham Henry to work with his players.
"I was invited to training for two weeks in a row to work with the loose forwards and the backs, giving them some sevens training which was good for their skills sets," he said.
