Your at-a-glance guide to watching Ireland v Wales, Scotland v France and Italy v England wherever you are in the world.
Six Nations round 4 is set to be a must-watch weekend of rugby action, as the annual competition enters its final stages.
On Friday night, Ireland host struggling Wales in Dublin, looking to set-up a Triple Crown decider against Scotland next weekend. In Saturday’s first game, France travel to Scotland knowing that a bonus point victory will secure the Six Nations title with a week to spare. Then, a few hours later, England face a tricky evening in Rome as they look to get their floundering campaign back on track.
The good news for rugby fans is that all three matches are available for free if you live in the UK, Ireland or France. Below you’ll find an at-a-glance guide to watching Six Nations round 4 live streams from anywhere, with kick-off times, streaming information and details of how you can use a VPN to watch your usual Six Nations stream if you’re overseas this weekend.
