Italy vs Wales live stream: preview
The 2025 Six Nations game between Italy and Wales will take place at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. The match kicks off today, Saturday, February 8 at 2.15pm GMT / 9.15am ET / 1.15am AEDT (Sun.).
For the first time since 2015, Italy avoided the Wooden Spoon in last year's event and that is their aim this time around too. A 31-19 defeat by Scotland in round one represented a poor start, with Italy looking to recover here.
Wales were demolished 43-0 by France on matchday one. It is important that they get that loss out of their system quickly, but the pressure is building on Warren Gatland, who has overseen a 13-game losing streak.
A lack of confidence could be an issue for Wales in Rome. Gatland's team must do much better in possession, but Italy are adept at winning turnovers.
