This is what needs to happen for Wales to become Grand Slam champions

Wales' victory against Scotland on Saturday was the team's fourth successive Six Nations victory - and their 13th of a record-breaking winning run.

They are now set to be crowned Grand Slam champions - but three countries are still in contention for the title.

Wales, England and Ireland can all win silverware, with Wales currently on 16 points, England 15 and Ireland 14, while Scotland, France and Italy are consigned to filling the bottom three places.

  • A draw between Wales and Ireland - and England losing to Scotland at Twickenham - would see Wales win the title without a Grand Slam.

  • A draw between Wales and Ireland - and England beating Scotland - would see England crowned champions.

  • If Ireland beat Wales and England defeat Scotland, then England will be champions.
