They lead the table by a point and will secure the trophy and Grand Slam if they beat Ireland.

Wales last won the Grand Slam in 2012 and will be desperate to add another to their tally.

Standing in their way are reigning champions Ireland who won all of their matches in the 2018 edition of the competition.

Joe Schmidt’s men have battled hard for their victories without hitting top gear, but they will be hoping for a potentially crucial win on Saturday.
