The 2016 Six nations enters the business end of the tournament today as the third round of action draws to a close. Last night saw Wales run out as 19-10 winners over France in Cardiff, putting Warren Gatlands side top of the table for the time being.

Today's action gets underway with the bottom two teams as Italy face Scotland at 2.25pm. Both sides are yet to secure a win in this years tournament, despite coming close, and will be desperate to get some points on the board by the end of the day.

Following that, England host Ireland at Twickenham in a match that can't be missed. Ireland, the defending champions, are also yet to be victorious but will hope to become the third team in a row to beat England at home following their world cup dissapointment.

  • Wales beat France 19-10 last night
  • Scotland beat Italy 36-20 in Rome
  • England vs Ireland kicks off at 4.50PM
