The sides are out on the field, anthems to follow

Allez les Bleus.

Of the 89 games played between these sides, France just edge the total tries scored, by 154-153.

Welcome to Ultimate Rugby's coverage of the 2019 Six Nations Championship. France host Wales to kickstart the competition in round 1. France will look to improve on their fourth place finish last year, where they won two and lost three of their five matches. Wales will look to go one better after their runner up finish last year which saw them record three victories and two defeats. When the sides met in the competition last year, Wales emerged victorious by the slightest of margins, edging France 14-13 in an intense encounter. Expect more of the same in this clash as the sides look to build towards the Word Cup later in the year.
