About the match
Super Sunday's curtain-raiser, and a Cardiff fixture both teams will privately call winnable. Wales' winter has been ugly — three losses in three, double-figure deficits — and a home crowd plus a tiring Italy back row should let the Scarlets-leaning pack get a foothold. Italy travel knowing a fourth Six Nations win in a row is on the table; Sillari and the Bertoni axis have been excellent in the loose. The 11:15 kick-off is brutal for both sides, but at least it's locked at Cardiff Arms Park where Wales last won a Test in this competition. Pride match for Welsh rugby, end-of-cycle one for Italy.
