This Sunday’s Six Nations match between France and Ireland is the latest fixture to be postponed because of concerns over the coronavirus outbreak.

The decision follows earlier steps to postpone the Ireland v Italy and Italy v England fixtures.

England leads the table on points difference from France, who failed in their Grand Slam bid with defeat against Scotland yesterday.

As it stands, Wales' match against Scotland will go ahead this Saturday.

The decision to postpone England's match in Italy was taken last week because of the worsening situation in the country, and on Sunday France announced a ban of gatherings of more than 1,000 people.

England, France and Ireland remain in contention for the Six Nations title.
