Flying Fijians hunt for first win against Ireland

Flying Fijians hunt for first win against Ireland

The Fiji Water Flying Fijians will be looking to claim their first ever win over Ireland, while Ireland will want to keep their unbeaten record against Fiji when the two teams clash this weekend in Dublin.

After their record win in Cardiff against Wales 2 weeks ago and then beating Spain last week, the Flying Fijians will want to back those performances up this weekend and create another piece of history.

Ireland on the other hand came off a close win over Argentina last week which saw them surpass the All Blacks and move up to second place in the latest World Rugby Rankings.

The two teams have played 5 times against each other and the last time they met was in November 2022 where Ireland came out on top with a 35-17 win.

Ireland will host the Flying Fijians at 3.10am this Sunday at the Aviva Stadium.

Meanwhile, other interesting games this weekend will see France playing Argentina at 8.10am Saturday, Wales will host South Africa at 5.40am Sunday, Italy will take on the All Blacks at 8.10am Sunday, Australia will play Scotland at 1.40am Monday and England to play Japan at 4.10am Monday.
