The Ireland Grand Slam odds has them at 5-4 across the board to win their first Grand Slam since 1948. Before they do however they must overcome Wales at the Millennium Stadium in front of a packed house, mainly consisting of ardent and vociferous Welsh supporters.
By any standards this will be a difficult task for the Irish but one that they will undoubtedly relish. They have looked a very thorough outfit in this years Six Nations, they have never looked like getting beat by anyone that they have played so far, but they know that Wales will present an entirely different proposition.
Wales of course are still in line to win both the Championship and the Triple Crown. To win the latter all they need to do is win but to win the Six Nations they must win by at least 13 points. VC Bet offer odds of 4-1 for them to do this.

Ireland have a terrific record in the Six Nations at the Millennium Stadium. In fact since it became the Six Nations in 2000, Wales have only beaten them once at home. The last game at the Millennium Stadium in 2007 saw Ireland win 19-9 and before that in 2003, they won 25-24 and in 2001 it was an emphatic 36-6 victory. Wales solitary win came in 2005 when they won 32-20.
The stats therefore suggest an Irish victory, but the match betting suggest it will be Wales who will win the match.
Whatever the outcome, spectators should prepare themselves for the match of the tournament where there will be no quarter given and none taken by either side. It is a fitting match to conclude the 2009 Six Nations.
4-5 Wales, 5-4 Ireland, 22-1 Draw
