The Women's Six Nations rolls into round two this weekend, with England set for a trip up to North of the border for their clash with Scotland. The Red Roses are hot off the mark for their title defence, as John Mitchell's side look to claim an eighth consecutive tournament trophy and a fifth Grand Slam.

England commenced their latest Women's Six Nations campaign with a solid opening round win over Ireland, as the defending champions ran in a convincing 33-12 victory over Ireland. Bristol prop Sarah Bern picked up a brace upon this fierce start to the tournament, with Amy Cokayne, Jess Breach and Ellie Kildunne also crossing over in front of a capacity crown at the Allianz Stadium.

The Twickenham faithful were out in full force for a historic day in South West London, as 77,120 fans packed themselves into the stadium known in the borough as HQ. This set a new record for a Women's Six Nations match attendance, as this historic England team made another milestone.

However, the Scots are also looking strong out the gate, having come away with the spoils from a Celtic clash with Wales. Tries from Chloe Rollie, Shona Campbell and Anna-Lucia Scott built up an unsaleable lead with the sharpshooting of Helen Nelson adding three conversions and a further penalty mid-way through the first half. Scotland host England this Saturday, with a 13:30 kick off scheduled for Murrayfield.
