Ireland vs Wales live stream: How to watch Six Nations fixture online and on TV today

The Six Nations returns this weekend, as Wales set out to retain their title following an impressive campaign in 2021.

The defending champions kick off this year’s tournament with a trip to Dublin to take on Ireland, who finished third last time out.

Andy Farrell’s side also began last year’s tournament with a clash against Wayne Pivac’s Wales, who were 21-16 winners in Cardiff on that occasion.

Pivac and his players will look to go one better than last year’s title win by achieving a Grand Slam this time around – having been denied the accolade in 2021 when they were edged out by France in a thrilling final game for the Welsh.

Here’s all you need to know about today’s match.

When is it?

The game will kick off at 2.15pm GMT at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin.

How can I watch it?

ITV Sport will air the game live in the UK, with S4C also providing coverage in Wales.
