The fourth round of the 2024 Six Nations will take place this weekend, with Italy, England and Wales hosting Scotland, Ireland and France on Saturday and Sunday, respectively.

ROUND FOUR KICK-OFF TIMES

Ireland will be crowned Six Nations champions at Twickenham if they beat England with bonus point, as it will give them an unassailable lead at the top of the log. The showdown between these arch rivals at the home of rugby is scheduled for 18:45 on Saturday.

Earlier on the same day, Italy will welcome the high-flying Scotland at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome with kick-off set for 16:15.
