Scotland v Wales live stream: How to watch Six Nations from ...

Scotland v Wales

Strange things can happen in the Six Nations. And we’re not just talking about the ‘see you Jimmy’ hats or the daffodil headsets!

In the opening round of Six Nations fixtures, we saw Scotland cut loose at Twickenham, with a stunning Duhan van der Merwe try against England the moment of the weekend. While Wales simply couldn’t contain the Irish.

So far so straightforward, you might say. But Wales coach Warren Gatland has never lost to Scotland. Him and Gregor Townsend know each other’s methods too, having worked together with the Lions. And then there’s an intriguing recent history between these two, with Wales tripping up Scotland post-victory over the Auld Enemy, the last two years in a row. Something has to change.

We’re in for a rollicking ride in Edinburgh. Which way will it go? You can catch it all with a Scotland v Wales live stream – here’s how…
