France will look to make history as the first team of the Six Nations era to register back-to-back Grand Slams in the prestigious tournament’s 129th edition.
Les Bleus are the last side to claim consecutive clean sweeps, but that was in 1997 and 1998 in the Five Nations era. Ireland enter the tournament as the world’s top-ranked team, but France won all 12 of their 2022 Tests.
