What channel is the Scotland Six Nations match on? TV details for Italy clash

Scotland are in Rome this weekend to take on Italy in round four of the 2022 Six Nations.

The Scots opened their campaign back at the start of February with a 20-17 victory over England at BT Murrayfied, but have since lost by the same scoreline to Wales in Cardiff before going down at home to France 36-17.

Gregor Townsend’s men will be keen to get back to winning ways, with the Scots currently fifth in the standings, with the pointless Italians the only team beneath them. Townsend has named a strong team for the match.
