England and Ireland meet at Twickenham knowing they have little remaining margin for error in the 2026 Six Nations.
Reigning champions France are the only team to have claimed two wins out of two, having defeated Ireland on the opening night in Paris.
Andy Farrell’s side got a win on the board with a laboured triumph over Italy last week. Scotland, beaten by the Azzurri on week one, roared back into form by downing England at a raucous Murrayfield.
Steve Borthwick has responded to that setback by handing exciting young flanker Henry Pollock his first Test start, while captain Maro Itoje wins his 100th cap.
