The Irish head into the tournament in buoyant mood following a pair of victories over Wales in their warm-up clashes.

Their results in Dublin and Cardiff will have banished memories of a dire day at the office when they were defeated 57-15 by England at Twickenham in August.

Scotland beat Georgia twice and recorded a home win against France despite also being toppled 32-3 in Paris last month.

They remain very much outsiders to make an impact in this tournament, though Ireland are part of the chasing pack behind the hot contenders including New Zealand and South Africa.
