How to watch Italy v Wales in the 2025 Six Nations on Saturday 8 February, with details of live streams, TV channels and free options around the world.

Wales don’t have the game-breaking backs that they once had. Josh Adams is in the midst of his longest try-scoring drought for Wales (eight matches), Liam Williams doesn’t have the gas to cut through defences like he did in his pomp, and Tom Rogers, who was lively against France, has yet to get off the mark.

Veteran loose forward Taulupe Faletau will play his first game for Wales since the 2023 Rugby World Cup after being named on Thursday in the starting line up for their vital Six Nations clash with Italy in Rome on Saturday.

Warren Gatland, the head coach of Wales' rugby team, has dismissed Dan Biggar's assertion that the upcoming Six Nations match against Italy is the most significant game for Wales in two decades. Despite a 13-match losing streak, Gatland refuted the claim made by Biggar following the 43-0 defeat to France last Friday.

A win over Warren Gatland’s charges, who have lost their last 13 Test matches in a row, would see Italy claim just their second back-to-back home win in the Championship history

WARREN GATLAND HAS dismissed the notion Wales are facing their biggest game for two decades against Italy on Saturday. Former Wales outside-half Dan Biggar described the Guinness Six Nations clash in Rome as Welsh rugby’s biggest game for the “last 15-20 years” after an opening 43-0 thrashing to France left Gatland’s side surveying a record-breaking 13th consecutive defeat.
