Six Nations 2026: How to Watch & Live Stream Every Game | Rugby World
The 2026 Six Nations Championship reaches its dramatic conclusion on Saturday, with the title still up for grabs. After a thrilling tournament filled with upsets and compelling performances, the championship will be decided on , with France, Scotland, and Ireland all vying for the crown.
France currently top the table, but their Grand Slam hopes were dashed in a stunning 50-40 defeat to Scotland at Murrayfield. That result threw the championship wide open, creating a three-way battle for the title. Scotland’s victory not only kept their own hopes alive but also handed Ireland a significant opportunity to contend for the championship.
Ireland, having fallen to France in the opening match of the tournament, have rebounded strongly, securing victories over Italy, England, and Wales. They will host Scotland in Dublin on Saturday, a match they haven’t lost in nine years, a statistic that will undoubtedly boost their confidence. A French loss to England in Paris, coupled with an Irish win, would notice Andy Farrell’s team lift the Six Nations trophy.
England, already out of title contention, will travel to Paris to face France. Whereas they can no longer win the championship themselves, their performance could significantly impact the outcome of the tournament. A victory for England would deny France the title, potentially opening the door for either Ireland or Scotland.
In the weekend’s other fixture, Italy travel to Cardiff to face Wales. While Wales are all but guaranteed to claim a third successive Wooden Spoon, a win for Italy would secure a third victory in the championship for the first time in their history. Despite a 15-match losing streak in the Six Nations, Wales will be eager to complete their run of defeats in front of their home crowd.
