The Fiji Airways men's national 7s side will have a lot to play for when they take the stage at the London 7s tonight.

This season, Fiji has never won any of the last ten tournaments and if they lose again in London, it will be a repeat of 2011 where they failed to win any cup final.

Fiji has secured their place in the 2024 Paris Olympic Games after the Toulouse 7s last week, but for Ben Gollings’ men, they will not want to finish the season winless.

Fiji's first pool match is against Ireland at 9.23 tonight, they will then meet Argentina at 12.53am tomorrow and face Japan at 4.07am tomorrow in their final pool match.

The cup quarter finals will start at 8.45pm tomorrow, the cup semi-finals will begin at 12.33am Monday, and the final will be held at 4.26am Monday.
