Ireland is looking for something today that approaches a miracle when they finish its six nations campaign in Italy.

Ireland was impressive on the route for a potential Grand Slam and historical third successive Six Nations Crown, after seeing England and Scotland and held a revival Wales, only to come upset, while they were thrown by the French formidable in the second half of the largest soil on the soil.

The rear defense champions were noted only 8-6 at an interval, after a tense first period and appeared in the ascendary after France lost the captain of superstar Antoine DuPont at knee ligaments, who will exclude him for Monday, after Tadhg Beirne accidentally fell on his foot, after he had no measure, after which he had no measure, It was taken down, if it was an Irish action, after being accompanied by Irish Commissioner.

However, they were simply destroyed afterwards, giving 34 unanswered points to lose 42-27 and now to enter the last weekend, as suddenly a third wheel removed in the title battle.

Ireland is two points behind France and once by England in second place. They have to beat Italy with a bonus point and hope that both rivals lose their later day, but the end of the same number as France would not be sufficient due to the extremely higher points of Les Bleus.

Italy’s attention is focused on trying to make it a second successive year, without the wooden spoon, after starting both France and England, but being completely dismantled by both, after beating Wales and lost in Scotland.

Azzurri begins the weekend in the fifth row and a better point than Wales, who obtained two bonus points during their defeat at Murrayfield, but with a difference of worse points.

Italy vs Iriana Head to Head (H2H) Historical and Results

Italy won four of the 37 previous meetings against Ireland, but three of them were in the 1990s before the six nations, where their only success was again in 2013 in Rome.

Ireland has won each other contest besides this, a winning series in this 15 -year -old match of 15 years.

Italy vs Ireland prediction

Their total collapse of the second half against France was a truly bitter pill to swallow for Ireland, which would have imagined the chances of continuing and ensuring a title of history and Grand Slam at half time, especially after Dupont’s injury, which dominated so much.

But, on the other hand, they have been brushed aside in a way that has simply not happened in recent years, so it will be interesting to see how quickly they are able to regroup after changes, with just a slim chance to get the title on the last day.

They need a huge victory in Rome to have any chance before England and France would play and expect them to return here to get them against an Italy outfit that showed their attackers in the last two games, but also how extremely vulnerable they remain in defense.

Azzurri will be motivated by a strong desire to avoid turning to keep the wooden spoon and could keep it close to the early physical doors and it is likely to mark another attractive or two, but eventually we fully expect to be thrown again.

Ireland to win, with at least 20 points.
