-
Ireland arrive in Wales trying to keep their Six Nations dream alive
-
Both sides are unchanged from their Round 3 outings

Venue: Principality Stadium, Cardiff Date: Friday, 10 March Kick-off: 20:05 GMT
Ireland arrives in Cardiff to face Wales knowing that a win would take them top of the Six Nations, putting the pressure on England.
Currently, three points behind Eddie Jones’ side with two games to play, Ireland know a loss could see England seal the title on Saturday.
For Wales, the prospects are far bleaker after a dismal campaign that has seen them win one and lose two of their matches to date.
Both sides are unchanged from their Round 3 outings against Scotland and France respectively, and so the bookies expect it to be nothing more than a three-point game, that slight edge favouring Ireland.
RUCK QUIZZES:
-
You have two minutes to name every team Andy Goode played for
-
Can you name EVERY player to be given their England debut by Eddie Jones
-
What should be my rugby nickname?
After this tough game against Ireland at the Principality Stadium, Wales conclude their tournament with another difficult assignment in France while Ireland take on England in Dublin
