However, it’s not just the crowning of the 2025 champions that must be decided. At the bottom of the table, Wales and Italy are fighting to avoid the wooden spoon. The unwanted memento is traditionally given to the side that finishes last in the tournament, and the Welsh are the current holders after enduring a whitewash in 2024.

Heading into the match in Cardiff, Wales currently have a points difference of -65 compared to Italy's -82. However, that won't be a factor in the battle to avoid the wooden spoon, as Wales must not lose by more than seven points if they are to pick up both losing bonus points.

England produced one of their best performances for years to crush hapless Wales by a record 68-14 scoreline on Saturday to finish the Six Nations on a high and retain a chance of winning the title should France fail to beat Scotland later.

Ireland held off a spirited Italy to secure a bonus-point win in Rome, but their hopes of winning a third consecutive Six Nations title were ended by England's win over Wales.

Ireland head to Italy in the opening clash of Super Saturday on the last day of the 2025 Six Nations. As it stands, Ireland are in third place behind England and France, with all three teams in with a chance of winning the championship. Italy, on the other hand, are second from bottom and one point ahead of Wales.
