Join Ugo Monye for detailed analysis of the second round of this year鈥檚 Six Nations championship, featuring France鈥檚 trip to Twickenham to take on England.
The French last claimed the title in 2022, sealing a Grand Slam with a 25-13 home victory over the English in the final round that year. The mercurial Antoine Dupont was a try scorer that day, and he returns to spearhead an already potent back line that ran riot in November.
By contrast, England suffered narrow defeats to New Zealand, Australia and South Africa during the autumn, which heaped further pressure on head coach Steve Borthwick. The Red Roses last lifted the Six Nations trophy five years ago and will be desperately seeking an improvement on their third-place finish in 2024.
You can also watch what happened when defending champions Ireland travelled to Scotland and last year鈥檚 wooden spoon winners Wales took on Italy in Rome.
