Andy Farrell's side roared back to form with a record win against England at Twickenham ahead of the rest week and will now look to build momentum with a win in front of their home fans.

Wales suffered a heartbreaking defeat to Scotland last time out, racing into an early lead in Cardiff only to lose out to the visitors late on.

The visitors have to take the positives from a performance that showed Steve Tandy's side are moving in the right direction but remain winless at the bottom of the table ahead of their trip to Dublin.

Radio Times has rounded up everything you need to know about how to watch Ireland v Wales on TV and online.
