Today’s Fiji vs Wales live stream in the 2026 Nations Championship features two of the tournament’s outsiders looking to get off to the perfect start. Despite being part of the so-called Southern Hemisphere Series with Fiji as the fictional home team, this curtain-raiser is set to take place at the Cardiff City Stadium in Wales.
That shouldn’t cause Fiji too much consternation though. The last time these sides met in November 2024 was also in front of a partisan Cardiff crowd (across town at the Millennium Stadium) and the Flying Fijians stormed to a 24-19 victory. New Zealand-born Caleb Muntz was the main man on the day with 19 points, but the flyhalf has only just joined the squad after the domestic season and will be missed. Semi Radradra and Josua Tuisova form a strong partnership in the centre.
Wales suffered a third consecutive wooden spoon during this year’s Six Nations and find themselves two places below Fiji in the current world rankings. Head coach Steve Tandy has one hell of a job on his hands to turn the team around, but there were some sparks in the ashes as Dan Edwards inspired a consolation win against Italy in the play-offs. Could this be the start of something? Louis Rees-Zammit switches from full-back to his preferred position on the wing.
