The sides clash this evening in the final pool game of the Rugby World Cup.
The hosts have won their opening three games, however, like Ireland, they haven't quite guaranteed qualification for the knockout rounds.
Italy sit on 10 points and are only behind New Zealand on points difference and France who are on 13. Therefore, a win for Italy and the lack of a bonus point for France would see the Italians reach the quarter-final.Where is the game being played? The OL Stadium in Lyon, France.What TV channel is the game being shown on?
