Evening all,
Me and the wife are in Covent Garden this weekend. No problem going anywhere across London tomorrow, but where is a good place for us to go to get a great atmosphere, drink lots and watching the game.
We are Welsh.
Many thanks in advance

Compton's in Soho. Proper man's pub.
Just kidding, There are plenty of good ones if you wander towards Holborn (eastwards).

My knowledge is mostly SW London, which might be useless for you given your location. Around Clapham there's a ton of pubs showing it, but I can't say what the Welsh:English ratio will be! There's a pub called the Alma outside Wandsworth Town that always had rugby on and was good craic. I was in there for the 30-3 dubbing and it was mostly Welsh.
Ask on the WMB, I know there's a few from the old board who'd know a few places- think you could also head down to London Welsh's ground, they have a good rep.

Zipping out to Welsh is an excellent idea - it's a bit of a trek from Covent Garden and will be rammed, but the atmosphere will be superb.
Just avoid 'sports bars' or anything near Piccadily and you'll be fine though.
