What channel is Wales v Scotland Six Nations 2024 match on? Kick-off time, TV details and live stream
Check out how to watch Wales v Scotland in a Six Nations 2024 match, including TV details and more.
Wales and Scotland kick off their tournaments in Cardiff’s Principality Stadium on Saturday.
Wales are now without several of their most experienced and key players, having lost the likes of Alun Wyn Jones, Justin Tipuric, Leigh Halfpenny and Dan Biggar in the past 12 months.
Warren Gatland will have been further rocked by the sudden departure of lightning-quick winger Louis Rees-Zammit, who opted for the NFL’s Player Pathway Program and quit rugby union.
Scotland, meanwhile, are a much more settled side, and will be eager to find a level of consistency after being dispatched too easily by Ireland and South Africa in the 2023 World Cup.
Finn Russell has been in great form for Bath, and full-back Blair Kinghorn has slotted in well at Toulouse, seeming ready to take up Stuart Hogg’s mantle.
Gregor Townsend’s side are without veteran prop WP Nel, however, giving the Scots a tight-head crisis. Nel’s Edinburgh teammate Javan Sebastian has been called in as a replacement.

Wales v Scotland key player to watch
Blair Kinghorn (Scotland)
As tempting as it is to put Finn Russell, rugby’s self-proclaimed Messi, Blair Kinghorn may end up being just as important. The full-back has impressed since moving to Toulouse, so expect him to make the 15 shirt his own this tournament with Hogg retiring shortly before the World Cup.
He can sparkle in the type of free-flowing attack that Russell can construct, and will be a valued weapon.
Wales v Scotland prediction
Scotland will back themselves to win. Despite beating England and France in their own backyards in recent times, they’ve failed to beat Wales in Cardiff since 2002, and will desperately want to do so.
Gatland will hope that Scotland’s Principality hoodoo prevails once again. But this is very much a team in transition for the Welsh, and don’t be surprised if the Scots take advantage of that.
