Italy v Ireland

Gabby Logan presents coverage of Ireland's clash with Italy at the Stadio Flaminio in Rome.

Ireland have never lost to Italy since the inception of the Six Nations and thrashed their hosts on their last visit to the Eternal City. It was an impressive victory for the men in green, who ran in eight tries, but there was a sting in the tale - a try in stoppage time by Italy's Roland De Marigny proved crucial as France pipped Ireland to the title on points difference just hours later.

Despite the comprehensive win on their last visit to Rome, Ireland, who are now coached by Declan Kidney, will not be complacent in their approach to today's match - the Italians ran Ireland close in Dublin last year, and the gap between them and Europe's leading rugby nations appears to be narrowing all the time.

Former Ireland captain Keith Wood and ex-England legend Lawrence Dallaglio will be joining Gabby in the studio. Match commentary comes from Nick Mullins and Phillip Matthews.
