match dates, start times, how to watch and latest odds
England kept their Six Nations title hopes alive on Saturday with a hard-fought victory over Wales at Twickenham.
It was far from convincing from Eddie Jones’ team, but it means they can still go into their final-round clash against France with a chance of lifting the trophy – providing they beat Ireland first in round four.
Meanwhile, Les Bleus, the pre-tournament favourites, are living up to that billing with three victories from three, comfortably dispatching Scotland at Murrayfield on Saturday.
Ireland, too, are looking very strong and outclassed 13-man Italy in Dublin on Sunday. However, the match was not without controversy.

How to watch the Six Nations live
Every game will be aired live on either the BBC or ITV.
The BBC has lost the rights to broadcast France’s home matches in the men’s Six Nations from 2022 but the tournament remains on terrestrial television after a new four-year deal was agreed up to and including 2025. The two broadcasters began sharing the rights for the championship in 2016.
In previous years, the BBC broadcasted all of Scotland, Wales and France’s home matches – with ITV showing those of England, Ireland, and Italy – but from 2022 all matches in Paris will be added to ITV’s coverage.
The BBC has exclusive rights to the women’s championship. The men’s under-20 championship will also be shown on the Beeb.
