Two of Europe’s best sides, Wales and Ireland, will look to keep their Rugby World Cup preparations going on the right note when the sides clash on Saturday in Cardiff. This is The Roar’s guide to live streaming the match online, or watching it on TV in Australia.

The match is set to be played at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales, with kick-off set for 11:30pm on Saturday, August 31.

Ireland are a side who have plenty to gain out of this match. While 2018 was a great year for the men in green, 2019 hasn’t been so good, and a 57-15 loss to England at Twickenham last weekend will have alarm bells ringing.

Wales, on the other hand, beat England 13-6 in their last match and are building nicely for the World Cup.
