Italy v Ireland

Italy host Ireland at the Stadio Olimpico, Rome, on Saturday 13 February 2027, kicking off at 2:10pm, in Round 2 of the 2027 Guinness Men's Six Nations Championship. It's a fixture Italy will relish, coming off a landmark home win over England in Rome during the 2026 tournament, as the Azzurri look to build further momentum against an Ireland side that opened their campaign with victory over England in Dublin. With Ireland chasing another strong campaign and Italy determined to prove last season's breakthrough was no one-off, this clash carries real stakes for both sides early in the tournament. Played at one of Italy's most iconic and atmospheric stadiums, with capacity for over 73,000, this fixture promises a passionate Roman crowd. With Six Nations rugby continuing to grow in popularity in Italy, tickets for this fixture are expected to be in strong demand — book early to secure yours.
