The two teams have, since 2007, competed for the Giuseppe Garibaldi Trophy and twice since have the Italians upset their much-fancied French opponents.
But those wins, in 2011 and 2013, feel a long time ago and both came in Rome: Italy have not beaten France on the road since 1997.
France have two points to their name already in this year’s Six Nations but both came as a result of narrow losses to Ireland and Scotland respectively, something Italy can only dream of after thrashings by England and then the Irish too.
- France vs Italy kick-off time
Friday night rugby was first introduced to the Six Nations in 2009 and has, more often than not, been held in Cardiff.
But this time, France and Italy are taking the circus to the Marseille and the Stade Velodrome, where the two sides will kick-off at 9pm local time - or 8pm in the UK.
