The 2026 Six Nations comes to an end this weekend, with France, Ireland and Scotland in contention for the trophy. Neither Wales nor Italy will be crowned champions this year, but both teams will still be going all-out for victory when they go head-to-head at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff.
This has been another tournament to forget for Wales, who will almost certainly receive the wooden spoon for the third Six Nations on the bounce. Each of their four matches up to now has ended in defeat, although there were signs of improvement in their recent losses to Scotland and Ireland.
Italy are fourth in the table having won two and lost two so far. They are riding the crest of a wave after beating England for the first time in their history last time out, and Italy are now determined to pick up as many points as possible. If they can hold on to fourth place, it would only be the third time in history they have finished that high in the table.
Wales will be determined to give their fans something to shout about and home advantage could help them end the 2026 event with a win. Italy have beaten both Scotland and England already, though, so Wales will not have everything their own way.
