What time and channel is Ireland v Russia on? TV info, betting odds and more for the Rugby World Cup clash

Ireland need to pick themselves up off the ground after a shock defeat to hosts Japan has blown open Pool A of the Rugby World Cup.

An impressing opening win over Scotland installed Joe Schmidt's side as the heavy favourites to top the pool and set up a quarter-final date with South Africa.

But that script has been torn up after Japan stunned Ireland in Shizuoka in one of the tournament's biggest ever upsets.

A losing bonus point has left Ireland second in the pool and staring down a possible last eight tie with New Zealand or worse, an early exit from the World Cup.
