Italy vs Wales live stream: Six Nations preview
Wales head to the iconic Stadio Olimpico in Rome today in search of a much needed win over Italy as they battle to avoid the dreaded Six Nations wooden spoon.
Both sides have lost all three of their matches so far in this campaign, with Wales currently at the foot of the table on zero points, a place below the Azzurri who sit fifth on account of picking up a losing bonus point.
Having come into this year's tournament amid the turmoil of a distracting players contract dispute, Wales have proceeded to crash to a succession of poor defeats to Ireland, Scotland and England and look desperately short of confidence.
The Italians are meanwhile looking to make it back-to-back wins over the Welsh following their narrow win in Cardiff in last year's Six Nations.
Kieran Crowley's men will feels somewhat unlucky not to have more points on the board at this stage, having come close to beating France in the opening round, and also put in solid performances in their defeats to England and Ireland.
Italy star full-back Ange Capuozzo has been ruled out for the remainder of the tournament with an injury picked up in the clash with Ireland, with Tommy Allan set to deputise in the number 15 shirt for the hosts. Montpellier fly-half Paolo Garbisi is fit and will likely poke a few holes in Wales' defense.
There are six changes to Warren Gatland's Welsh starting XV from the side which lost to England last time out, with Liam Williams returning at full-back, Rhys Webb playing in the nine shirt for the first time in three years, while Rio Dyer replaces Louis Rees-Zammit.
Italy vs Wales kicks off at 2.15pm GMT / 9.15am EST today, Saturday 11th March, at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. Make sure you know how to watch an Italy vs Wales Six Nations 2023 live stream.
