Wales are back in action this weekend in the Nations Championship – but it’s not on ITV1
Wales are back in Nations Championship action this weekend, as they take on Argentina in San Juan.
Fresh from victory over Fiji at the Cardiff City Stadium, hopes are high that Steve Tandy’s side can continue to show signs of progress when they take on Los Pumas on Saturday night.
However, fans tuning in this weekend might be surprised to find the match isn’t being shown on ITV1.
Here’s what you need to know ahead of Argentina v Wales…
What time is Argentina v Wales kick-off?
Wales take on Argentina on Saturday, July 11 at Estadio San Juan de Bicentenario, San Juan.
Kick-off is 8.10pm BST.
What TV channel is Argentina v Wales on?
The match will be shown live and free-to-air on ITV4, rather than ITV1.
Last week saw ITV opt to keep its regular Saturday afternoon schedule on its main channel, with Tipping Point: Best Ever Finals airing before the national and regional news ahead of World Cup matches.
This week will see more of the Nations Championship on ITV1 – with the first five matches of the day all on ITV.
However, the final day of the match switches to ITV4 – with coverage of Argentina v Wales starting at 7.30pm BST.
The match is also being shown on S4C, with coverage starting at 7.30pm.
Argentina v Wales live stream
Fans can also watch the match live via ITVX or on BBC iPlayer and S4C Clic.
Radio commentary will be available on BBC Radio 5 Live Extra and BBC Radio Wales.
