France are in pole position to win the title as the Six Nations reaches an exciting conclusion for 2025 on Super Saturday.
A formidable second-half demolition of Ireland in Dublin in a huge clash in round four has put Les Bleus firmly within reach of their first championship since 2022, with any sort of win this weekend set to be enough to clinch the trophy as Fabien Galthie’s side host inconsistent Scotland in Paris in the last of three matches.
First up on the final day, wounded defending champions Ireland head to take on Italy in Rome, before England travel to Cardiff to battle old rivals Wales.
Ireland and England have to win well in order to apply any pressure to France, whose significantly superior points difference over both their title rivals could also yet come into play.
Away from the main title picture, Italy and Wales are also embroiled in a fight to see who can avoid sixth place and the dreaded wooden spoon this year.
