Steve Borthwick’s men face Japan on Sunday, with a win likely to secure a spot in the quarter-finals as one of the top two-ranked sides in their pool.
- Venue: Stade de Nice
- Date: Sunday, 17 September
- Kick-off: 20:00 BST
The Brave Blossoms reached the knockouts in 2019 before losing to South Africa in the quarter-finals, and won their opening game in this year’s competition against debutants Chile 42-12.
But England will go in with confidence, having endured a difficult build-up, following their win over the Pumas.
