Wales U20s v France U20s live: Start time and latest score updates

Richard Whiffin has named a full-strength side as Wales U20s take on France U20s for a place in the semi-finals of the World Rugby U20 Championship.

Wales fell short in the opening round against New Zealand but did pick up two losing bonus point, while a much-changed side secured maximum points against Spain. Defending champions France beat Spain but fell to a narrow loss to the Baby Blacks last week.

With New Zealand facing Spain they are likely to finish top of Pool A but a bonus point victory for Wales over defending champions France will secure qualification for the semi-finals, but a win without four tries means they will have to rely on other results going their way. Whiffin has made nine changes for this crucial clash after resting a number of key players for the victory over Spain.

In come Josh Morse, Issac Young and Sam Scott, while Osian Thomas and Lucas de la Rua also come into the pack in place of Nick Thomas and Owen Conquer. Macs Page and Aidan Boshoff come onto the wing while Louie Hennessey starts at centre in place of Elijah Evans.

Kick-off: 3.30pm
