What date and time is Ireland vs Wales?

Ireland take on Wales at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on Saturday, February 22.

Kick-off is at 2:15 pm Irish and UK time.

What is at stake and what was the result in the last Six Nations match between Ireland and England?

Ireland are heavy favourites for the game and are the only team left in the Six Nations who are still in the hunt for the Grand Slam.

Provided they win the game first, they will want to put a big score on Wales, in case the Championship comes down to points difference.

Wales are playing their first game under interim head coach Matt Sherratt, following the sudden departure of Warren Gatland.
