France v Wales rugby: Six Nations 2023 TV channel, kick-off time and radio
Check out how to watch France v Wales live on TV this weekend, including kick-off time and coverage details.
France's job is a simple one this weekend: win. Anything less than a victory over Wales will see crowns placed on Irish heads on Super Saturday.
Fabien Galthie's men hit top gear last time out with a 53-10 annihilation of England at Twickenham and will hope to dish out a similar kind of performance against the Welsh in Paris.
Ideally, France need a bonus point victory to push the pressure onto Ireland. That would take them one point above the Irish, who face England in the final match of the tournament.
Ireland are still firmly in the driving seat to seize the title, but France can only do their job and hope for a wild evening in Dublin.
Wales have endured a fairly miserable time despite the return of Warren Gatland at the helm. Their sole victory came against Italy and they could be on the wrong end of a demolition job here if France click like we know they can.
