Wales vs Scotland live stream: how to watch Six Nations from anywhere

It's been 20 years since Scotland last beat Wales in Cardiff, but that curse may well be broken this afternoon, with the out-of-sorts reigning champions looking like they might be there for the taking for Gregor Townsend's in-form charges. Read on as our guide explains how to watch a Wales vs Scotland live stream for the 2022 Six Nations from anywhere in the world – including free-to-air coverage in the UK and Ireland.

With the leaders set to play each other later today, this is an early chance for Scotland to set their stall at the very top of the Six Nations standings.

Scotland were magnificent almost across the board in their 20-17 opening weekend victory over England, with skipper Stuart Hogg again their shining light. In the end it was tighter than it might have been, but the explosive relief of that tension has generated a huge amount of momentum.

Wayne Pivac shouldn't have to say much to get a reaction from his players, but such was the gulf in class between Wales and Ireland last weekend that it's difficult not to fear for the hosts. 29-7, and their only try was an opportunistic late score by Taine Basham.

Wales rode their luck in a narrow, thrilling victory over Scotland a year ago, but unless they drastically improve there's no way these teams are being separated by a solitary point. Follow our guide as we explain all the ways to get a Wales vs Scotland live stream wherever you are right now – starting with how to watch the Six Nations for FREE in the UK and Ireland.
