Six Nations Super Saturday continues this afternoon with a huge clash between old rivals in Cardiff. England head across the Severn Bridge with their title hopes alive as they look for another bonus-point victory that would heap the pressure on France ahead of their evening clash with Scotland in Paris, with Ireland kicking off proceedings against Italy in Rome.
Steve Borthwick’s side need to produce a similar sort of attacking display that saw them register seven tries against Italy last weekend, with the likes of Marcus Smith and Tom Roebuck both starting and Tommy Freeman switched into the centres. However, these clashes with Wales are so often tight and tense close matches, with the hosts no doubt looking upon today’s meeting as a chance to finally end their record 16-Test losing run.
First half at Murrayfield aside, there has been a resurgence under interim coach Matt Sherratt, who has made two changes to his team as they bid to rise off the bottom of the table and avoid a second successive wooden spoon. Follow Wales vs England live below, with expert analysis from Standard Sport’s Simon Collings at the Principality Stadium.

England travel to meet Wales this afternoon in the middle match on an exciting Super Saturday in the 2025 Six Nations.
Steve Borthwick’s side look best-placed to take advantage of any slip-ups by leaders France against Scotland in Paris later on tonight, but first they need to put the pressure on by winning well in Cardiff.
Wales still haven’t won a single match since the 2023 Rugby World Cup and are desperately hoping to end their record losing run that now stands at 16 successive Tests, 10 in a row in the Six Nations, but there has been a clear resurgence under the temporary leadership of Matt Sherratt, if you discount last week’s first half at Murrayfield.
Two bonus points picked up in that losing effort against Scotland, Wales can still hope to rise off the bottom and at least avoid a second successive wooden spoon at Italy’s expense.
