Who needs what in Pool C?published at 13:54 British Summer Time 7 October 2023
Wales v Georgia (14:00 BST)
Wales have already reached the quarter-finals and the other place will be secured by either Australia or Fiji.
Wales need one point against Georgia to guarantee top spot and set up a quarter-final in Marseille on Saturday, 14 October.
That will almost certainly be against Argentina or Japan, although Samoa still have a ridiculously bizarre mathematical chance of finishing second in Pool D.
Fiji need one point against Portugal tomorrow to confirm second place on the head-to-head rule having already beaten Australia.
If Fiji get nothing from the match, Australia will qualify for the quarter-finals as runners-up.
Georgia and Portugal cannot qualify for the quarter-finals and cannot gain automatic qualification for the World Cup in 2027 as they are on three and two points respectively with one game to play.
This means Wales, Australia and Fiji have qualified for the 2027 World Cup.
