First played in 1909, France versus Ireland has long been a titanic contest between two proud rugby nations.
The two sides have met over 100 times, with just eight of those coming outside the Five/Six Nations and home advantage has been a key theme throughout.
Both teams have struggled on the road in either Paris or Dublin, as well as a few other venues down the years, but that has never taken away from what is always a grand occasion when the two countries go head-to-head.
