Round four of the 2026 Six Nations can see the championship wrapped up, but there’s still more for all the sides to fight for.

With one big shock in week three, this set of fixtures are set to come down to the wire again.

Ireland to beat Wales at 1/100 (Sky Bet)

With their shock 42-21 punishing of England in week three, it’s no surprise that Ireland are not only favourites for this game, but favourites by a long margin. 

That win now sees them third in the table with nine points, two points off second-placed Scotland, and six points off leaders France.

It wasn’t meant to be last week for Wales, however, as they just missed out on a chance to claim their first win of the tournament over Scotland, losing 23-26.

Their odds to end their dismal form and beat the Irish side are 22/1.

France to beat Scotland at 3/10 (Sky Bet)

If the French win over Scotland at Murrayfield this weekend and score four tries, they will secure the Six Nations crown with a round to spare, setting up a grand slam opportunity in Paris against England.

It’s not a shock that this French team, four points clear at the top of the table and with a point differential of 89, are outright favourite for this game.

That being said, this Scottish side is in second place, coming off the back of two wins and chasing glory at home.

Their odds of winning and sending the championship decider into the final week are 3/1.

England to beat Italy at 1/4 (Sky Bet)

Despite both sides sitting on five points, each with one win and two losses, this matchup is still tilting in favour of the English.

Having only managed to beat an out-of-form Welsh side so far, England come into the week hoping to find their mojo again, against an equally inconsistent Italy. 

After claiming a statement win over the Scots in week one, the Italian side are yet to build on that, with back-to-back losses to Ireland and France.

Their odds to beat the English are 11/4.
