The hosts beat Italy 31-17 in Cardiff, ending a three-year Six Nations drought and breaking a 15-game losing run in the tournament. Wales took a 21-0 lead at the break, with Aaron Wainwright scoring twice and Dewi Lake crossing over; Dan Edwards kicked goals and a late drop-goal. Italy's scoring came from Di Bartolomeo, Allan, and Garbisi, but the hosts stayed ahead throughout. The result marked Wales's first home Six Nations win since 2022.
