Stadia

It is the smallest stadium in use at this World Cup. Will also host Ro16 Match 1 and Quarterfinal 1.

Pool D matches are being held at the largest Aelsh stadium — the Free Stone Stadium, which is Aels' national football stadium, in the capital Drayfill. It has a capacity of 19,000, although 3,500 extra seats have been temporarily erected to bring its capacity up to 22,500. Will also host Ro16 Match 4, Semifinal 1, and the third-place playoff.

Pool G matches are to be played at a converted Avongarran, capacity 28,000, located in Caernankry, Ancharmunn.
