Six Nations - Scotland v Ireland: All You Need to Know

The second fallow week is behind us, and we're officially into the business end of the 2023 Guinness Six Nations.

Through three games, Ireland are very much in control of their own destiny. Two wins from their final two games against Scotland and England will see Andy Farrell's side claim just a fourth Grand Slam in their history.

They could even head into Sunday's game with the possibility of securing the title with a game to spare.

If the winner of Saturday's meeting between England and France do so without a try-scoring bonus-point, then Ireland's lead would become insurmountable if they beat Scotland and score four or more tries in the process.

Talk of winning a championship is getting ahead of ourselves though, because a win of any kind will be more than acceptable against a Scottish team who are making real strides in the last 12 months.

Gregor Townsend's side are still in the mix for the title, and if they can turn Ireland over on Sunday, they'll be in with a real shot of winning the championship when they host Italy in Round 5.

Scotland are also playing for a Triple Crown this Sunday, having beaten England and Wales earlier in the championship, and while the overall title is the one they want to get their hands on, the prospect of a first Triple Crown success since 1999 will make for a ferocious atmosphere at Murrayfield.
