Six Nations 2025: Fixtures, results and how to watch as Ireland go for three-peat

The 2025 Six Nations is right around the corner as the best of the northern hemisphere battle it out for top honours.

Ireland are the reigning back-to-back champions but will face stiff opposition in their bid for the three-peat. They will also be without head coach Andy Farrell, who has handed over the reins to Simon Easterby so he can focus on preparations for the 2025 British & Irish Lions tour of Australia.

France will be expected to challenge after beating Japan, New Zealand and Argentina in the Autumn Nations Series, while Scotland and England will also fancy their chances.

There is also the added intrigue of the British & Irish Lions tour, with no bigger stage for players to impress and secure a spot on the plane.

Every side is capable of claiming a scalp on their day, which is what makes it one of the most-loved tournaments in the sport. The margins are small, so who will prevail and lift the trophy in 2025?

There isn't long to wait for the next installment and you can keep up to date with all the fixtures, results and more below.
