Viewers in the United Kingdom can watch the match live on Sky Sports Action and Main Event, with coverage on the channels from 7pm BST. A live stream will be available via Sky Go. Welsh language coverage is available via S4C.

The fantastic news for rugby fans is the opening game of the tour is being shown for free live on S4C (Wales) - which can be accessed on BBC iPlayer albeit with Welsh commentary, and TG4 (Ireland). It marks a historic co-production partnership between the two national broadcasters, who offer fans free-to-air coverage of the opening match.
