Six Nations 2025: Who can win the Championship? Title permutations & points explained

Advertisements

Three teams realistically remain in the Six Nations title race going into Super Saturday.

France lead the way at the top of the standings, while second-place England and Ireland in third both retain title ambitions.

Fourth-place Scotland can also still mathematically lift the trophy, but they would need to beat France with a bonus point and overturn their mammoth advantage on points difference, while also relying on unlikely results elsewhere.

If sides finish level on points, including bonuses, the title will be decided on points difference.

A try-scoring bonus is awarded to teams who score four or more in one match, while losing bonus points can be earned if teams are beaten by fewer than seven points.

BBC Sport looks at the route to silverware for this year’s Six Nations title contenders.
