France will retain their U20 Six Nations crown on Sunday if Ireland fail to record a bonus-point win over Scotland in Cork (15:15 GMT).

Les Bleus, who beat Scotland 45-26 last Friday, have won all four of their matches with bonus points and will seek to clinch a Grand Slam against England in the final game on Sunday (17:45 GMT).

Given their superior points difference, a loss in La Rochelle could still result in the championship being retained.

England overcame Italy 37-17 in round four, but sit behind France and Ireland in third place, six points off top spot

Wales, who host Italy in Newport on Sunday (13:00 GMT), are ahead of Scotland in fourth place thanks to a bonus point picked up in their recent defeat by Ireland, while Italy are bottom with two bonus points.
