Wales can win the Grand Slam or let the Six Nations title slip away on the last day when they face Ireland
Wales’ weekend of reckoning has arrived with the Six Nations 2019 boiling down to their clash with Ireland at the Principality Stadium.
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.
Ireland can still record a third successive Six Nations title if they beat Wales and England lose to Scotland.
