France Poised for Six Nations Title in Finale Against Scotland
A bonus-point victory over Scotland would secure the championship for France, but England and Ireland remain in contention under specific scenarios.
- France leads the Six Nations standings with 16 points and a superior points differential, needing a win against Scotland to claim the title.
- A bonus-point victory, awarded for scoring four tries or more, would guarantee France the championship regardless of other results.
- England's commanding win over Wales (68-14) and Ireland's narrow victory in Italy (22-17) keep both teams in contention, though England would need an improbable 86-point swing to overtake France.
- France will play without injured captain Antoine Dupont, with Maxime Lucu and Grégory Alldritt stepping up as key leaders on the field.
- Scotland, while mathematically eligible, faces a daunting task to win the tournament, requiring an unlikely combination of results and a high-scoring victory in Paris.
