France seized control of the 2025 Six Nations with a sensational win over Ireland in Dublin, but the title battle will go down to the final weekend.
A win for the hosts – who only have a trip to Italy left to come – would have seen them near enough seal the Grand Slam and a historic third successive crown with a game to spare after they overcame an unexpected scare in Cardiff prior to the second fallow week to clinch the Triple Crown.
England will hope to take advantage of any French slip-ups, with their bonus-point win over Italy moving them up to second in the standings and just a point behind Les Blues.
