We look ahead to a crucial week of Rugby World Cup action, as Scotland and Italy face last chances, while Ireland, hosts France and Fiji may be feeling a bit of pressure...
Pool B: Scotland's last chance; Ireland under pressure?Only one place to start with ahead of the final weekend of pool stage fixtures, and that's the group of death in Pool B, where one of Scotland, Ireland or South Africa will exit the tournament on Saturday.The trio came into the World Cup all inside the world's top five in terms of rankings , but a brute of a draw has been handed their way.
The fact Fiji failed to pick up a bonus-point in victory means there is still work for them to do heading into the final weekend, despite Australia losing twice already to Fiji and Wales. Fiji face Portugal on Sunday in Toulouse , and need a solitary point - either a victory, try bonus point or losing bonus point - to make sure of their quarter-final place and Australia's first ever pool stage exit from a Rugby World Cup.
