What time do the final Autumn Nations Cup rugby games kick-off today?

The Autumn Nations Cup will come to an end this weekend after its fourth and final round, where England and France will contest the title.

We will also see Fiji take part for the first time, after being forced to pull out of their three pool fixtures due to coronavirus cases within their camp.

It means fans will get to see Georgia v Fiji, Ireland v Scotland, Wales v Italy and England v France this weekend.

UK kick-off times for round three of the Autumn Nations Cup:

Saturday, December 5

Georgia v Fiji kicks off at 12pm and is being broadcast on Amazon Prime Video, with coverage beginning at 11am. It is the seventh-place play-off at Murrayfield.

Ireland v Scotland is the second match of the weekend - the third-place play-off - kicking off at 2.15pm at Dublin's Aviva Stadium. It is being broadcast on Amazon Prime Video.

Wales v Italy kicks off at 4.45pm and is the fifth-place play-off. This match, at Parc y Scarlets, is being broadcast live on S4C and Amazon Prime Video.

Sunday, December 6

England v France - the final - kicks off at 2pm at Twickenham, with live coverage being broadcast on Amazon.

How does the Autumn Nations Cup work?

Well, eight teams - Wales, England, Ireland and Georgia in Group A and France, Italy, Scotland and Fiji in Group B - each had three fixtures against the other teams in their group to determine their table rankings.

In the finals weekend, each team is facing the side which has finished in the same table position in the opposite group.

The Autumn Nations Cup replaced the original planned Tests with teams like Australia, New Zealand and South Africa unable to travel to the UK due to the coronavirus pandemic.
