Wales vs Scotland live: how to watch Six Nations game online, TV streams, kickoff time, team news

The Six Nations continues this afternoon with a clash between Wales and Scotland.

It's been 22 years since Scotland beat Wales in Cardiff, and they've yet to do it under Warren Gatland. However, they have a golden opportunity to put both hoodoos to bed on Saturday. 

Gregor Townsend's men are up against a Welsh outfit that is rebuilding from the ground up, so if they're serious about taking home the silverware, only a convincing win will suffice.

Louis Rees-Zammit pulling out of the Six Nations in order to pursue a career in the NFL on the day of the squad announcement sums up Gatland's task. 

Wales may have reached the quarter-finals of the World Cup, but they lost to the first decent team they faced, and a who's who of greats, including Alun-Wyn Jones and Dan Biggar, are no longer on the scene.
