Six Nations 2024: Fixture dates, schedule, results, table, TV channels and how to follow showpiece rugby union competition

The 2024 Six Nations are now up and running as England look to challenge title contenders Ireland and France.

England have flattered to deceive in the home nations tournament in recent years but a respectable third-placed finish at the World Cup last year leaves cause for optimism.

Steve Borthwick has headed into the Six Nations without his World Cup captain and fly-half Owen Farrell after his transfer to France.

In their opening game, England narrowly avoided a shock defeat to Italy, coming away 27-24 winners.

They next take on Wales aiming to make their first unbeaten start to the tournament for many years.
