The sides have made their way out onto the field in this crucial Pool A game and we will have a minutes silence for those affected by Typhoon Hagibis

Scotland have only failed to make the quarterfinal once, whereas Japan look to make their first quarterfinal this evening.

Japan and Scotland will meet for the eighth time. Scotland have won all seven of their previous encounters.

Japan and Scotland clash to bring an end to the pool stages of the Rugby World Cup and what a cracker it's going to be. Hosts Japan remain unbeaten with three wins from their three matches and a victory, draw or loss with two bonus points will see them top Pool A and progress to the quarter-finals for the first time in their history. Scotland have recorded two victories from their three games and must win this match to have chance at progression into the knock out rounds as runners up in the pool. A titanic battle awaits with so much at stake for both sides.

Can’t see this game going ahead.
